Ingredients:<br />
1 sheet ready made shortcrust pastry<br />
½ cup cream<br />
5 eggs<br />

small head of broccoli, cut into small flowerettes<br />
Method<br />
1. Grease fluted quiche pan (with removable base).<br />
2. Line pan with pastry and trim to fit.<br />
3. Cut baking paper big enough to overlap edges of pastry case and fill with dried beans or pasta<br />
– enough to hold pastry in shape whilst cooking*.<br />
4. Bake in NuWave oven on 10cm rack, level 10 for 20 minutes, remove beans & paper, bake a<br />
further 5mins.<br />
5. Blanch broccoli in boiling water for around 3mins.<br />
6. Whisk eggs with mustard and salt & pepper until combined.<br />
7. Whisk in cream.<br />
8. Sprinkle ham, mushrooms and blanched broccoli evenly over bottom of pastry case and top<br />
with grated cheese.<br />
9. Gently pour egg mixture over filling.<br />
10. Bake in NuWave oven on 5cm rack, level 10 for 25mins. Or until filling is set.<br />
11. Allow to cool in pan for around 10mins.<br />
* This is called ‘blind baking’ your pastry.<br />
This quiche is delicious served warm or cold – it’s great for picnics!<br />
