Ingredients

Cookware

  • One 11 inch tart/pie dish (28 cm) or 10 inch cake pan (25 cm)
  • 1 bowl
  • 1 grater for the nutmeg
  • 1 pan or small skillet
  • 1 rolling pin


Preparation

  1. Prepare the dough for the quiche crust with flour, butter, salt and water and let stand at least 20 minutes.

  2. Cut the pork belly into small strips or cubes (like lardons), trimming any excess fat. Blanch the pieces of meat by placing them in a pan, covering them with cold water, and then boiling them for 1 to 2 minutes. Drain. You can also brown the meat in a pan, with no oil, and then discard the grease.

Spread the bacon pieces on top of the dough then pour the liquid mixture over the bacon. Bake in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 30 minutes. Serve warm with a green salad

  6. Tip: Try making the quiche in a smaller pan with high sides
