Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 sheet puff pastry thawed
  • 4 oz smoked salmon chopped
  • 4 oz goat cheese crumbled
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill chopped
  • 1 tbsp chives chopped
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Equipment

  • 9-inch pie dish
  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Oven

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Press the pastry into the dish and trim any excess.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper until well combined. Stir in the chopped smoked salmon, crumbled goat cheese, dill, and chives.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared puff pastry crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the top is golden brown.
  4. Allow the quiche to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Chef's Tips:
• For a crispier crust, blind bake the puff pastry for 10 minutes before adding the filling
• Avoid overmixing the egg mixture to prevent the quiche from becoming too dense
• Serve with a light salad for a complete meal
Food Safety:
• Ensure the quiche reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) to ensure eggs are fully cooked
• Store leftovers in the refrigerator and consume within 3 days
