Vegetable-packed tuna quiche, delicious hot or cold.
Ingredients:
  • 2 sheets ready-rolled shortcrust pastry, partially thawed
  • 200g butternut pumpkin, peeled, cut into 1cm pieces
  • 36.40 gm olive oil
  • 1 medium leek, trimmed, halved, washed, sliced
  • 62.50 ml frozen peas, thawed
  • 425g can tuna in springwater, drained, flaked
  • 8 eggs
  • 117.50 gm reduced-fat sour cream
Instructions:
  • 1. Preheat your oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced and place a large baking tray inside. 2. Line the base and sides of a 5cm-deep, 25cm (base) round, fluted, loose-based flan tin with pastry, trimming any excess. 3. Freeze the tin for 20 minutes or until the pastry is firm.
  • Place the tin on a preheated baking tray and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the pastry is a beautiful light golden color. Remove from the oven and reduce the temperature to 180°C/160°C fan-forced.
  • On a baking tray, toss pumpkin with half of the oil and roast for 20 minutes until tender. Set aside. In a frying pan over medium heat, sauté leek in the remaining oil for 5 minutes until tender.
  • Lay pumpkin, leek, peas, and tuna on pastry. Whisk eggs, sour cream, salt, and pepper until smooth. Pour over vegetables. Bake until just set, about 45-50 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
