Quiche lorraine


bottom :



- 175g plain flour

- 100 g butter, cut into pieces
- 1 egg yolk


stuffing :


- 200g smoked bacon
- 50g Gruyere or other  cheese
- 200ml creme fraiche
- 3 eggs, well beaten
- pinch of ground nutmeg
- pepper


Preheat the oven to 190 degrees.



Prepare dough - knead with listed ingredients.

Care must be taken that the pastry has for about 30 minutes to be in the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking should be removed from the refrigerator.


While cakes are cooling prepare the stuffing.

Cut bacon and fry.
To the bowl add eggs, whisk to break down and add the creme fraiche .
Add pre- fried bacon, stir and season to taste - usually bacon is quite salty, so it's good to add pepper and nutmeg.


after 30 minutes, remove the dough and placed between the two pieces of baking paper.

Roll out the dough into a thin, round piece and place it in a baking tray.
Bake the base for 1 - minutes in an oven.

Pour the liquid filling on top and bake for about 30 minutes in 190 degrees.

Asparagus tart

Asparagus tart


we need:

- pack of puff pastry
- 500 g asparagus
- 2 eggs
- reduced fat white cottage cheese
- 2 tablespoons reduced fat greek plain yogurt
- salt, pepper
- herbs


Remove puff pastry from the refrigerator  or from the freezer before cooking.
Leave it for a long time at room temperature - taken directly from the refrigerator is highly ductile and brittle.
Place it in cake/tart form, puncture the bottom with a fork and bake at 200 degrees until it is golden brown.

Meanwhile, prepare the stuffing.
Cut the asparagus tips off.
Peel the white asparagus, green no.
Cut into smaller pieces and thrown into the boiling, salted water (so they will cook faster).
When they are soft drain off and cool down.

Throw into a bowl of cottage cheese, mash with a fork and add the yogurt and spices.
Beat in two whole eggs and mix.

On the bottom we put cheese curd and arrange the asparagus pieces.

Cherry tomatoes and other vegetables can also be added.
