Blackberry & Goat’s Cheese Quiche

Ingredients

Ready to roll shortcrust pastry, thawed if frozen

6 eggs

100 ml milk

100 g sour cream

120 g goat’s cheese

80 g blackberries, cut in halves

2 tsp fresh thyme leaves

Salt & pepper

Directions

1Pre-heat oven to 180°C/160°C fan assisted.

2Gently roll the shortcrust pastry out over a 20cm loose-bottomed quiche tin. Press pastry into the tin and then trim away excess pastry. Chill in the freezer for about 10 minutes.

3In a large bowl or jug, whisk together eggs, milk, sour cream and a generous pinch of salt and pepper.

4Slice goat’s cheese then cut each slice into quarters.

5Pour egg mixture into chilled pastry then evenly distribute the goat’s cheese and halved blackberries. Sprinkle with thyme leaves.

6Carefully transfer to the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, until quiche is set around the edges and has lost its glossy top but there’s a slight wiggle in the centre.

7Leave to cool for about 15 minutes before enjoying warm. Can also be served cold

Rachel’s Quick Fruit Brulée

peach-brulee

Ingredients

(serves 4)
2 bananas, peeled and cut at an angle into 5mm (ªin) thick slices

4 nectarines or peaches, stones removed and flesh cut into wedges 5mm (ªin) thick

16 strawberries, hulled and quartered

100g (3ƒoz) caster sugar, plus an additional tablespoon of caster sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

4 tablespoons mascarpone or 
whipped cream

In a large bowl, toss the sliced 
bananas, the chopped nectarines or peaches, whichever you are using, 
and the quartered strawberries with 
one tablespoon of the caster sugar 
and the lemon juice. Divide between individual bowls, adding a few blobs of the mascarpone or whipped cream, whichever you’re using, to each one.

Next, make the caramel to go on top. Place the 100g (3ƒoz) caster sugar in a small to medium saucepan on a medium heat and stir. It will begin to look lumpy and sandy, but don’t worry – just keep stirring. Eventually, it will become viscous, turning from golden to a rich caramel colour. Altogether, this can take up to about 12 minutes.

Using a spoon, carefully drizzle all the caramel over the mascarpone or whipped cream, whichever you’re 
using, and over the fruit. Set aside for about five minutes, just to allow the caramel to cool and set hard, then serve.
