Categories     Egg     Brunch     Bake

Yield 4-6 people

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 unbaked pie crust (if frozen, thawed)
1.5 TBSP unsalted butter
2 TBSP finely chopped shallot
1 small or 1/2 large leek, cleaned and sliced in 1/2 inch slices
6-8 oz lox (smoked salmon) cut into small pieces
8 oz shredded Emmenthaler cheese
1 cup whipping cream
4 large eggs
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
2 TBSP chopped fresh dill

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line pie dish with crust. (I took the frozen pie crust, removed it from the tin and put it in my 9 inch pie plate). In a medium fry pan, melt butter and saute shallots and leeks, just until the leeks begin to soften. Set aside. In a medium bowl, using a whisk, blend whipping cream, eggs, salt, and pepper. Add in salmon, cheese, leek mixture and chives, and mix well. Pour egg mixture into the pie crust, spreading evenly. Bake for 40-50 minutes until quiche is puffed and lightly browned, and knifetest comes out clean. Enjoy!
