Instructions

1
Quickly knead the flour, cold butter in flakes, egg, water and a pinch of salt into a smooth shortcrust. Wrap in film and chill.
2
Roll out the dough, line a greased tart tin with it, prick the base several times and blind-bake with parchment and baking beans.
3
Slice the mushrooms and cut the leek into rings. Sauté briskly in the butter with the garlic until the liquid has evaporated. Season with salt and pepper.
4
Whisk the eggs, cream, thyme leaves and nutmeg and season with salt and pepper. Spread the mushroom mixture over the base and pour the custard on top.
5
Bake the quiche until the custard has set and the surface is golden brown. Let it rest briefly before slicing.
