Delicious. I cooked all the asparagus in the quiche. Hubby was impressed that I made the pastry!
Nice quiche. Quite easy to make. We just sliced the asparagus thinly and put on top raw which worked well. Thanks for the recipe
Great, subbed sour cream for the cream and doubled the lot made 2 decent sized quiches
This is delicious!
I made 2 additions:
1. serve with a few capers at the end. Goes so well with this dish.
2. I had leftover salmon skin so I salted and fried this off in a frypan, then diced inti delicious sea-bacon bits and sprinkled them over the top of a second quiche (had heaps of salmon mix leftover)
I have a Miele recipe very similar to this. This one includes the asparagus so I tried it tonight. It is absolutely delicious. I will be making it very often. I increased the amount of pastry to 125g butter and 250g flour and added an egg yolk. I like a slightly thicker base and my oven cooks it beautifully on intensive bake followed by bottom heat. Cooking time is a little longer. The egg white I put into the egg mixture. Also I only used 180g salmon and felt that covered the 24 cm base nicely.
