Leek and Brie Quiche - Real Recipes from Mums

This recipe is a delightful meal served on it’s own, or is lovely accompanied by a side salad. It can also be kept in the fridge and enjoyed cold the following day. A puff pastry base is optional; it holds together well without requiring this.

Ingredients (serves 3)

3 Leeks
250g Brie Cheese
3/4 cup Heavy Cream
2 Eggs

Method

Discard the dark green parts of the leeks, and cut the stems in quarters lengthwise, then in 2cm strips. Rinse and place in a non-stick frypan over medium head, and cook until slightly tender (about 3 minutes).
Heat cream in a saucepan until it begins to boil, and then reduce heat to low. Add 1cm cubed pieces of Brie cheese, with the rind removed. Stir until smooth and remove from the heat and allow to cool. Whisk in 2 eggs, and season with salt and pepper.
Fill a round quiche dish evenly with the leeks, then pour the liquid mixture evenly over it. Bake in 180 degree oven until slightly brown (about 20 minutes).

Notes

This is our go to extra meal to serve at barbecues to accommodate vegetarians.

  I do love to eat brie and I am a huge fan of buying it when on special and adding it to quiches. We do love to bake quiches and eat them hot and also keep them cold in the fridge. Quiche is so good for lunches to eat during the week.

Sounds really delicious but maybe a bit too ‘heavy’.

Thank you for thinking of vegetarians at BBQs – usually there is so little to eat.

I made it yesterday evening!! Everybody loved it!! Thanks for the lovely recipe!
I used 200 grams of Brie instead of 250 because that was the size I found at the supermarket!
