Method

A savoury flan, such as a quiche, made with shortcrust pastry is an ideal lunch dish or light supper when served with a crisp salad and some crusty French bread. Most flans use an egg custard as a base into which you set a selection of cooked and flaked fish, lightly sautéed or blanched vegetables, cheeses or any savoury ingredient.
