Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go

  1. Preheat the oven

    Turn the oven on to 200 °C, convection or regular.

  2. Line the pan

    Unroll the pie crust into the tart pan with its parchment paper, pressing it up the sides. Prick the bottom with a fork.

    Tip · Press the crust up the sides of the pan a little, or it slides down while baking and the filling spills over.

  3. Cook the bacon

    Put the 100 g of smoked diced bacon in a skillet with no added fat over medium heat until golden. Drain it on paper towels or leave the fat in the skillet.

  4. Make the filling

    In the mixing bowl, whisk the 2 eggs with the 10 cl of crème fraîche and the 5 cl of milk. Add pepper, and go very easy on the salt since the bacon and cheese are already salty.

  5. Fill the quiche

    Spread the bacon over the crust, pour the filling on top, then sprinkle with the 50 g of shredded Swiss cheese.

  6. Bake the quiche

    Bake at 200 °C until the filling is set and the top is golden. The center shouldn't jiggle anymore.

  7. Dress the salad

    In the rinsed mixing bowl, toss the 100 g of salad greens with the 10 ml of balsamic vinegar, the half tablespoon of olive oil, salt and pepper, right before serving.

    Tip · Dress the salad at the last second, or the vinegar makes it go limp.

  8. Rest and serve

    Take out the quiche and let it rest a few minutes before cutting it into slices. Serve with the salad.
