Instructions
Step 1
Cut 80 grams of butter into cubes and place in a bowl. Take 200 grams of wheat flour, sift through a fine sieve, add to the butter. Mix until the mixture looks like bread crumbs. Add two tablespoons of cold water and stir until a soft dough forms. Add more water if necessary. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes, covered with cling film. Remove, place on a floured kitchen board and roll out. Can be rolled out by placing the dough between two sheets of baking paper. Carefully place the dough in flour-dusted tins and trim off any excess. And put it in the refrigerator again for 20 minutes.
Step 2
At this time, heat the oven to 180 ° C. In the quiche, the main thing is the filling, not the dough, so bake the base of the pie as follows. Place parchment or baking paper on top of the chilled dough and sprinkle a layer of rice, peas or beans on top of it. Dry beans will not allow the weight of the dough to rise during baking, the base will remain thin, crispy. Place the tins in a preheated oven and bake for about 45 minutes.

During this time, make the filling for the quiche. Mix 2 eggs with a pinch of nutmeg, two tablespoons of milk, salt to taste. Grate 50 grams of Parmesan on a coarse grater. Peel 2-3 cloves of garlic, cut into thin slices. Remove the forms from the oven, carefully remove the paper with rice or peas. Sprinkle the base with parmesan and garlic slices, pour over the egg-milk mixture. Bake for 20-25 minutes at 150 ° C until golden brown.
