Quiche Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Scallops

   Rinse the scallops under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Cut them into small pieces and set aside.

2. 2

   Sauté the Leeks

   Trim and slice the leeks thinly. In a skillet over medium heat, add a tablespoon of butter (not listed in ingredients) and sauté the leeks until they are soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and set aside.

3. 3

   Make the Egg Mixture

   In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and chopped fresh dill until well combined.

4. 4

   Combine Ingredients

   Add the sautéed leeks and chopped scallops into the egg mixture. Stir gently to combine, ensuring that the scallops are evenly distributed.

5. 5

   Prepare the Puff Pastry

   Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to fit your pie dish. Transfer the rolled pastry to the dish and trim the excess. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

6. 6

   Assemble the Quiche

   Pour the filling mixture into the prepared puff pastry shell, spreading it evenly.

7. 7

   Bake the Quiche

   Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.

8. 8

   Cool and Serve

   Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
