I make quiches fairly frequently. They need to be deep to be satisfying. Diana Henry’s Crab (and Tomato) tart from How to Eat a Peach works and is tasty as long as brown crab is included. I tried a proper French Quiche Lorraine recipe by the Roux Brothers but it was too, too rich. It used egg yolks galore.

My favourite cookery book is my 1982 edition of Delia Smith's Basic Cookery Course. I make flans and quiches quite often but only recently discovered the following 2 in that book:- A thick Onion tart; and, Sour Cream and leek flan. Following Delia's recipes to the letter means the bottom pastry is always crisp and the filling is the right amount of the dishes. As my husband is lactose intolerant, I have made both using plant based milk/cream. Totally yummy and delicious.
