Steps:

• Make the pastry (recipe from Bbcgoodfood website). Chill for 30 mins minimum. Whilst pastry chills, chop onions, and sauté with the sugar, in butter for 5-10 minutes. When cool,mix with cheese,and plenty of seasoning. Blind bake pastry case in 20 cm quiche/tart tin. Add cheese and onion filling to cooked pastry case. Mix eggs and milk,and pour into quiche tin. Bake for 50 mins on 170 fan/ 180 conventional oven. When cool enough to handle, remove quiche from tin.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Add onion and saute until soft, about 3 to 5 minutes.
• In a large bowl, beat together eggs, cream, basil, oregano, salt and pepper.
• Spoon the onions into the pie crust. Pour the egg mixture over the onions. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top.
• Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into center of the quiche comes out clean, about 30 to 40 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large non-stick frying pan, add the onions and cook for 20 mins, stirring now and then, until they are soft and golden brown. Season, stir in the thyme leaves, then transfer to a plate to cool.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 with a large baking sheet inside. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface until large enough to line a 25cm loose-bottomed tart tin, with a little overhang of pastry all the way round the top. This will stop the pastry shrinking in the oven later. If there is more overhang than you need, trim off the excess with scissors. Gently press the pastry into the sides of the tin and prick the base with a fork. Chill for 15 mins.
• Line the pastry case with a sheet of baking parchment and fill with ceramic baking beans. Bake for 15 mins on the hot baking sheet (this helps to prevent a soggy bottom). Carefully remove the parchment and beans, then return to the oven for 10 mins more until the pastry looks cooked like shortbread, but is not too brown.
• Meanwhile, put the bacon in the pan you cooked the onions in (there's no need to wash it first or add any oil) and fry for 10 mins until golden. Lift from the pan onto kitchen paper to remove any excess fat. Beat the cream, milk and eggs with seasoning and nutmeg, then stir in the bacon and half the cheese.
• Remove the pastry case from the oven and reduce heat to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Spoon the caramelised onions evenly over the base of the pastry case. Pour in the bacon mixture, then scatter with the remaining cheese, the thyme sprigs and a little nutmeg. Bake for 25-30 mins until golden and the filling is just set with a slight wobble in the centre.
• Trim the excess pastry and leave to settle for 10 mins, then remove from the tin and slice.

Steps:

• place the flour, oats and salt in a mixing bowl and rub in the margarine until the mixture resembles bread-crumbs.
• add the water and mix to a firm dough.
• turn onto floured surface and need lightly until smooth.
• roll out and use to line a 20 inch flan dish.
• chill for 15 minutes.
• meanwhile make the filling.
• heat the oil in a pan; add the onions and fry gently till transparent.
• mix the eggs and milk together, then stir in the cheese and onions salt and pepper to taste.
• pour into flan case and bake in a preheated oven, 190 or 375, for 30-35 minutes.
• serve hot or cold with salad.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. Grease an oven-proof dish. Roll out the pastry on a floured surface, and line the dish with the pastry.
• Beat the eggs and milk together in a medium-sized bowl, and season to taste. Pour the mixture into the pastry.
• Grate the cheese and add it to the mixture, being sure to spread the cheese evenly.
• Cook on the middle shelf of the oven for 30 minutes or until the cheese on top is golden brown. Serve.

Steps:

• To make the pastry, tip the flour and butter into a bowl, then rub together with your fingertips until completely mixed and crumbly. Add 8 tbsp cold water, then bring everything together with your hands until just combined. Roll into a ball and use straight away or chill for up to 2 days. The pastry can also be frozen for up to a month.
• Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface to a round about 5cm larger than a 25cm tin. Use your rolling pin to lift it up, then drape over the tart case so there is an overhang of pastry on the sides. Using a small ball of pastry scraps, push the pastry into the corners of the tin (see picture, above left). Chill in the fridge or freezer for 20 mins.
• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. While the pastry is chilling, heat the butter in a pan and cook the onions for 20 mins, stirring occasionally, until they become sticky and golden. Remove from the heat.
• Lightly prick the base of the tart with a fork, line the tart case with a large circle of greaseproof paper or foil, then fill with baking beans. Blind-bake the tart for 20 mins, remove the paper and beans, then continue to cook for 5-10 mins until biscuit brown.
• Meanwhile, beat the eggs in a bowl, then gradually add the cream. Stir in the onions and half the cheese, then season with salt and pepper. Carefully tip the filling into the case, sprinkle with the rest of the cheese, then bake for 20-25 mins until set and golden. Leave to cool in the case, trim the edges of the pastry, then remove and serve in slices.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Fry bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until crispy, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels. Let cool 10 minutes. Crumble and set aside.

• Bake crust in the preheated oven on the middle rack for 15 minutes.
• Remove pastry crust from the oven. Brush crust with beaten egg. Return crust to the oven and bake 5 minutes more.
• Heat butter in a pan over medium heat and stir in onion. Cook and stir until onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and continue cooking and stirring until onion is very tender and dark brown, about 40 minutes more.
• Whisk 2 eggs together in a bowl using a fork. Add sour cream and cream cheese and beat using an electric mixer until well combined. Beat in salt and pepper.
• Spread caramelized onions with remaining butter onto pastry crust. Sprinkle with 1/2 the Cheddar cheese. Place crumbled bacon evenly over the top. Pour egg mixture over bacon. Top with remaining Cheddar cheese.

Fill with pie weights, dried beans or uncooked rice. Bake until light golden brown, 10-12 minutes. Remove foil and weights; bake until bottom is golden brown, 3-5 minutes longer or Cool on wire racks., Divide ham, cheese and onion between shells. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, cream, salt and pepper until blended. Pour into crusts. Cover edges loosely with foil. Bake until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 35-40 minutes. Let stand 5-10 minutes before cutting. Freeze option: Cover and freeze unbaked quiche. To use, remove from freezer 30 minutes before baking (do not thaw). Preheat oven to 350°. Place quiche on a baking sheet; cover edge loosely with foil. Bake as directed, increasing time as necessary for a knife inserted in the center to come out clean.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°; prick the crust all over with a fork.
• Line it with tin foil and weight the bottom with a pile of dried beans, rice, or other weights that will sit flat on the surface.
• Bake 12 minutes; remove from the oven and carefully remove the weight and foil; turn the oven to 325°.
• In a bowl, combine the eggs, cheese, cream, and seasonings; beat until well blended.
• Place the baked crust on a baking sheet; pour the egg mixture into the crust, right to the top.
• Carefully transfer the baking sheet to the oven; bake 30-40 minutes, until the mixture is set but still moist; it should still jiggle just a little in the middle (cover pie crust edges with foil if getting too brown).
• Cool on a rack; serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Place all pastry ingredients into a food processor with the large blade and blend until a soft 'dough' is formed. Drizzle chilled water in to help bind if needed.
• Roll pastry on a well floured, cold surface until around the thickness of a £1 coin. Line a deep (c.5cms) 25cms wide, fluted loose based flan tin with the pastry. Prick the bottom ( but don't go right through) Chill for 20 minutes or whilst preparing the filling.
• Fry 3 onions until softly browning and caramelised at the edges. Whisk 4 eggs with a pack of soft cheese, salt/cracked black pepper to season & the herbs. Lay the onions in the pastry base. Pour over the egg mixture. Sprinkle with generous layer of grated cheddar cheese.
