quiche with bacon and Brussels sprouts
Steam the Brussels sprouts until tender, about ten minutes. Dice the petit salé bacon and remove as much of the fat as possible. Chop the onion and a few cloves of garlic. Fry the bacon with the chopped onion and then add the sprouts. Season with pepper. Cook over low heat for a few more minutes, until the Brussels sprouts are completely soft. Press them a little flat in the pan. Grease a silicon cake tin with butter, dust with flour and press the crumbly pastry base into it. Fill with the bacon and sprouts preparation. Beat the eggs with the cream and pour this preparation over the quiche. Put in an oven pre-heated to 185°C for 25 minutes. Leave to cool to lukewarm before cutting into pie slices. The quiche can also be eaten cold.
