Mushroom Quiche

Mushroom Quiche

2 cups mushrooms (I used swedish kantarellar)

6 eggs

1 cup cream

1 tsp dried thyme

salt & pepper

1 cup grated västerbotten cheese (strong white cheddar would be a good substitute)

1 tbs butter

defrosted puff pastry (4 small sheets)

juice of half lemon

• preheat the oven to 200C. Roll the puff pastry fairly thin and line 4 small metal pie dishes with it. It needn't be perfect, puff pastry always looks fine in the end.
• set a frying pan over medium heat and melt the butter. Sauté the mushrooms in the butter for 3 minutes then add salt and pepper, and lemon juice. Fry 1 more minutes then remove from heat.
• Divide the mushrooms evenly between the 4 pie dishes.
• Beat together the eggs, then add in the cream, thyme, salt and pepper, and grated cheese. Mix well.
• Pour the egg mixture over the mushrooms into the pie dishes, then place the pies in the oven. Bake 20-25 minutes.
