For 4 people:
1/Prepare the Pie Dish: Grease a 26cm pie plate with butter. Set aside.
2/ Chop the Green Onions: Finely chop the green onion (or leeks, depending on what you’re using).
3/ Sauté and Simmer the Onions: Heat the butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the chopped green onions and sauté briefly. Then cover the pan, reduce to low heat, and let them simmer for about 10 minutes until soft.
4/ Season the Onions: Season the cooked onions with salt and pepper to taste. Turn off the heat and set aside.
5/ Make the Egg Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and crème fraîche until well combined.
6/ Add the Flour and Seasoning: Gradually add the flour while whisking to avoid lumps. Season the mixture with a little more salt and pepper.
7/ Mix in Cheese and Onions: Add the shredded cheese and the cooked green onions to the egg mixture. Stir gently to combine.
8/ Assemble the Quiche: Pour the mixture into the prepared pie plate. Cut the smoked salmon into bite-sized pieces and scatter them evenly on top.
9/ Bake: Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 35–40 minutes, or until the quiche is set and golden on top

⭐️ Flexible Cream Options: No crème fraîche on hand? You can easily substitute it with sour cream or fresh cream—or even just milk if you prefer a lighter texture.
⭐️ Adjust Baking Time as Needed: Oven performance can vary, so keep an eye on your quiche and adjust the baking time accordingly to ensure it’s perfectly cooked.
⭐️ Add a Fresh Finishing Touch: For extra color and flavor, try adding chopped chives or parsley just before serving, as shown in the photo.
⭐️ Enjoy Year-Round with the Perfect Side: This quiche pairs beautifully with a crisp green salad for a light, refreshing meal—or with a warm bowl of soup when you’re craving something cozy and comforting. Whether it’s spring or winter, it’s a versatile dish that fits any season.
⭐️ Add a Touch of Elegance with a Beet Mousse: For a colorful and refined plate, try serving this quiche with a side of Chilled Beet and Goat Cheese Mousse. The vibrant pink color and creamy texture make a beautiful contrast.
