This following is an adaptation of a recipe from the Silver Spoon Cookbook. It incorporates the lower fat crème fraîche as well as the pastry of the Jus-Rol quiche Lorraine recipe. It is really easy to make and doesn’t require a tonne of ingredients.

Salmon and Gruyere quiche recipe

Ingredients

• 120g smoked salmon (you can use smoked salmon trimmings, which  are cheaper and save on chopping)

• 100g Gruyere cheese (grated)

• 4 eggs

• 250g of low fat crème fraîche

• Salt and pepper to season

• One Jus-Rol shortcrust pastry sheet

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200ºC (180ºC for fan assisted ovens) or gas mark 6
2. If frozen, defrost the Jus-Rol shortcrust pastry sheet as per instructions and then roll out (flour the rolling pin and surface) so that it can line a 10″ (approximately 25cm) shallow flan tin
3. Sprinkle the smoked salmon trimmings over the pastry base
4. Grate the Gruyere cheese and sprinkle over the salmon
5. Beat the eggs and Crème fraîche together and season with the salt and pepper. Pour mixture over the salmon and Gruyere
6. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes (until the egg mixture has fully set)

The quiche can be eaten hot or cold. In the past I’ve served with pea shoots, rocket, coleslaw or green beans. We accompanied with a glass or two of Trebbiano D’Abruzzo but here are some more ideas for what to drink with it: 3 Wines to Pair with quiche. The girls accompanied theirs with squash.
