CHEAT DAY 〰️
Cheat Day is our take on sexy visuals paired with tried and tested, easy recipes. We wanted to showcase our team’s creative capability by making something fun and educational for our audience.
This, like IOTD was made in collaboration with our friend, Chef Austin Labago, to create our own version of these recipes.

Quiche Lorraine
Ingredients
Puff pastry 1 pc
Bacon 4 pcs
White onion 1 pc (thinly sliced)
Swiss cheese 1 cup (cubed or grated)
Parmesan cheese 1/4 cup (grated)
Eggs 4 pcs (beaten)
Heavy cream 2 cups
Nutmeg 1/4 tsp (optional)
Salt 1/2 tsp
Black pepper 1/4 tsp
Tabasco (optional)
Procedure:
Preheat oven to 200 celsius.
The pastry should be used to line a nine-inch pie pan. Make a rim with the pastry and
flute it. This is required to make the amount of filling specified in the recipe.
Cover the top of the pastry with parchment paper and fill the shell halfway with dried
beans or rice. Place in the oven for 5- 10 minutes.
Reduce oven heat to 180 celsius. Remove the beans or rice and parchment paper and
set the puff pastry aside.
Fry the bacon or bake it until crisp. Once cooked, remove bacon then use the oil from bacon to saute the onion, until translucent.
In the partially baked puff pastry, crumble the bacon then sprinkle together with the onion and cheese.
Beat the eggs, cream, nutmeg salt and pepper. Add in tabasco sauce if you'd like. Strain the mixture then add them into the bacon, onion and cheese mixture in the pastry.
Put back your pie in the oven. Bake 20-25 minutes 180 celsius.To check if it's cooked, poke a knife into the middle, when it comes out without any wet mixture. Remove from the oven
Place in a wire rack and Let it sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.
