Quiche Lorraine traditional simple with lardons
12 steps
Prep:30minCook:40min
This is the most traditional recipe that my mother used to make when I was growing up. I would sat at the table and watch her preparing the pastry with rich butter, prick the pastry sides with two forks making the pie dish turn-which still to that day I cannot do-I only use one fork and I turn-not the dish. It is delicious with a green salad, a lettuce or a crispy romaine and a simple homemade French mustard dressing, with a finely chopped clove of garlic or a shallot. For a healthier version, use wholemeal flour for a lower GI . It is possible to use gluten free flour for the base too.
