This is very easy recipe, that takes next to no time to make! It’s mainly because I’ve used ready made quiche pastry shell to make this recipe, but if you want to make your own your can find my step by step recipe here.
This is also very budget-friendly recipe, as I’ve used tinned salmon, rather than fresh one. If you prefer you can use a fresh salmon and just follow the same recipe.
You can also make this quiche recipe with different vegetables. Small broccoli florets work well with this recipe, but garden peas, spinach or other salads can be added too. Just don’t choose vegetables with a lot of water in them, as it would make the pastry too soggy.
The rest of this Salmon and Broccoli Quiche recipe is very easy to follow, just make sure that when you are pouring the liquid into the quiche pastry shell, you have a large baking tin underneath. It’s easier to transfer the quiche from and to oven, rather than use the small quiche dish.
This salmon quiche is best served hot with freshly made salad and new baby potatoes. I have to say, that sometimes, I love it have a piece just on it’s own, as it’s perfect cold!
Happy baking!
