Instructions
- Roll out and line your pie dishes with Short Crust Pastry, either blind bake (if you want to waste time) or try this cheat way by placing them straight into the freezer.
- Have your grated cheese ready and set aside and in a jug beat the eggs, add the milk and mix thoroughly.
- In a large fry-pan or wok on medium heat, drizzle a little olive oil and fry the onions, garlic, celery, garlic, capsicum, herbs, spinach, zucchini and mushrooms. Cook till onion and celery is clear and soft.
- Add the tuna to the vegetables, and cook for another 5 – 10 minutes tossing as you go. Add salt and pepper to taste. Here you can also add the sun-dried- tomatoes if you are using them in your quiche.
- If you have put the quiche bases in the freezer, remove them now and place an even amount of tuna mixture into the frozen pastry dishes.
- Pour the egg and milk sauce into each quiche, using a spoon or whisk to spread the mixture evenly to the edges. Sprinkle the grated cheese on top.
- Place into a 230C oven and cook for 20-40 minutes, until pasty is golden brown around the edges along with the top of the quiche.
