Step 1

Take a baking dish suitable for containing the dough which it has to go up on the edges of the baking dish for at least a couple of centimeters. Don't forget to lay parchment paper on the dish before to ease down the flaky pastry.

Step 2

Boil the broccoli tips in salty water for about fifteen minutes. They need to be soft. Once done, take them out from water and place into a strainer.

Step 3

Take now a large bowl and put the broccoli in it while still hot. Add the ricotta, grated parmesan, salt and pepper. Smash the broccoli with a fork and mix it with the other ingredients. Once is all smashed, let the mixture completely cool down.

Step 4

When the mixture is cold, add the bacon cubes, the eggs and a spoon of breadcrumbs. Mix all the ingredients until the eggs are incorporated and add some more breadcrumbs if the mixture seems to be too much wet.

Step 5

Ease down the broccoli and bacon mixture in the flaky pastry and spread it. If some dough is left around the edges you can fold it on top of the quiche. You can decorate the quiche with some sesame seeds on top before put it into the oven.

Step 6

Cook the quiche in the oven for about 40 minutes. When is done it has to be a little browny on top and the flaky pastry slightly crispy.
