- Baker: Sophie Carey

- Bake time: 45 minutes
- Flours used: Matthews Regenerative All Purpose Flour
Method
- To make the pastry, rub the fat into the flour until the texture is of fine breadcrumbs. Add the water 1 tablespoon at a time until the pastry comes together. Wrap and chill in the fridge for 20 minutes at least
- Poach the salmon fillets in the milk until fully cooked, then leave aside to cool. Do not throw away the milk!
- Dice the onion and sauté until translucent then set aside
- Roll out the pastry and line a tart tin. Prepare the pastry case for blind baking by pricking the pastry case with a fork and line with baking paper and baking beans - and bake at 190 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes.
- Remove the baking paper and baking beans, then brush the pastry case with eggwash before returning to the oven for 10 further minutes
- In a large jug, combine the cream, egg, milk from the salmon, flaked salmon, grated cheese, and lemon zest - also season with salt and pepper
- Pour this mixture into the pastry case, then lay the asparagus on top in a nice design! Return to the oven for 40 minutes or until the quiche has a gentle wobble in the centre
- Cool for at least 1 hour before cutting into slices, serve and enjoy!
