Crustless Quiche Lorraine

Est. Time: 35-45 min  •  6 Preparation Steps

Chef's Menu Description

An authentic Indian specialty cooked with freshly ground roasted spices, caramelised onions, and aromatic herbs in the traditional style.

Ingredients

  • • 6 large eggs
  • • 4 bacon medallions (all visible fat removed)
  • • 1 large onion
  • • 160 g reduced fat cheddar (grated)
  • • 4 tbsp plain quark
  • • salt and pepper (to taste)
  • • low calorie cooking spray

Preparation Steps

1
Phase 1

Pre-heat the oven to 160°C. Chop the bacon into thin strips and dice the onion finely.

2
Phase 2

Spray a frying pan with low calorie cooking spray and, on a moderate heat, cook the bacon strips and diced onion until the bacon has coloured and the onion is soft. Set aside to cool slightly.

3
Phase 3

Place the eggs into a large bowl and whisk. Add the quark and continue to whisk until the quark is fully combined - there should be no lumps at all. Season well with salt and pepper.

4
Phase 4

Stir in half of the cheese and the bacon/onion mix. Spray a 24cm flan dish with low calorie cooking spray and pour in the egg mixture. Make sure that there is an even distribution of bacon and onion.

5
Phase 5

Top with the remaining cheese and cook for 20 minutes until golden. If using a dish with a smaller diameter (therefore resulting in a deeper quiche) then it may need an extra 5-6 minutes in the oven.

Phase 6

Serve hot or cold with your choice of accompaniment.
