## Directions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Spread some butter on a 26cm Ø or two smaller baking tins and cover it with flour
|
|
|
|
|
2. Sieve the flour, mingle the butter/margarine in small flakes.
|
|
|
|
|
4. Form a depression in the middle of the flour and add spoons of water.
|
|
|
|
|
5. Mix all ingredients by hand until the dough becomes a homogenious mass.
|
|
|
|
|
6. Wrap the dough in aluminium foil and let it rest in the fridge for two hours (around -4 °C).
|
|
|
|
|
7. Preheat the oven at 200°C.
|
|
|
|
|
8. Spread the dough on a flour-covered surface. Roll it until it has a thickness of around 4mm. Form a crust on the sides.
|
|
|
|
|
9. Use a fork to prick the dough for a more thorough heat penetration.
|
|
|
|
|
10. Cut the ham in slices and distribute them evenly on the dough.
|
|
|
|
|
11. Divide the yolk from the egg white.
|
|
|
|
|
12. Whisk the yolk with cream.
|
|
|
|
|
13. Add the grinded cheese.
|
|
|
|
|
14. Whisk the egg white until it becomes foamy. Add it to the yolk-pepper-salt-cheese mixture.
|
|
|
|
|
15. Cover the ham in the baking tin with the mixture. Equalize the surface.
|
|
|
|
|
16. Bake the Quiche in the oven on the middle rail for 30 minutes.
|
|
|
|
|
17. After baking leave it to rest for a few minutes, then serve while it's still warm.
|
|
|
|
|
I recommend serving it with a glass of white wine.
