Serves 6

Prep time:  20 minutes, plus chilling time

Cooking time: 45-50 minutes

 

Ingredients

For the pastry;

225g plain flour, plus extra for dusting

115g butter, cubed

1 egg yolk

 

For the filling;

200g smoked bacon lardons

1 onion, peeled & finely chopped

100g mushrooms, sliced

2 garlic cloves, finely chopped

120g stilton cheese, crumbled

2 large eggs

2 egg yolks

150ml double cream

150ml milk

Freshly ground pepper

 

Method

 

1.  For the pastry, place the flour and butter in a food processor and blend.  Add the egg yolk and 3-4 tbsp chilled water, blend until you have a smooth dough.  On a floured surface knead briefly, cover in cling film and chill for 30 minutes.

 

2.  Preheat the oven to 190°C/170°C Fan/Gas Mark 5.

 

3.  On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pastry and line a 23cm deep flan tin, press the dough into the sides.  Prick the base of the pastry and line with greaseproof paper and baking beans.  Blind bake for 12 minutes, remove the paper and beans, and bake for a further 10 minutes or until slightly golden.

 

4.  For the filling, heat a large frying pan and dry fry the lardons for 3-4 minutes.  Add the onion and mushrooms, fry for a further 2-3 minutes.  Add the garlic and fry for a further minute, then spread over the pastry case and top with the cheese.

 

5.  In a bowl whisk together the eggs, double cream, milk and pepper, and pour into the pastry case.  Place in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden and set.

6.  Allow to cool slightly and serve while still hot or cold.
