Originally from the cook book from my oven, adapted to feed two over two meals - one hot, one cold.

Quiche lorraine

(Note this is mixed units but this makes exactly the right amount of pastry for my flan dish! We have 2 parts flour to 1 part fat.)

Make pastry and line an 8" flan dish.
If using a Kenwood food processor, put fat and flour for the pastry in the bowl. Mix on speed 7 for 90 seconds, add water and mix for 1 minute. When a ball is formed, stop mixer.
Roll out and line pie dish and place in fridge to rest for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat fan oven to 170°C.
Finely chop onion and chop bacon. Fry quickly in a little butter until golden.
Beat eggs, herbs and cream (a hand blender is perfect for this).
Scatter onion mix over pastry and pour in eggs and sprinkle parsely on top.

Bake at 170°C (fan oven) for 35-45 minutes.
