Step by step recipe

1	Roll out 350 g puff or flaky pastry (pâte feuilletée), then line a high-sided 22 cm (8.5") diameter circle or mold, which you will have placed in a baking sheet. Trim excess dough around the mold, then place in the fridge.
2	Prepare and chop 1 shallot. Set aside.
3	Cabbage Prepare 700 g white cabbage, and chop finely. Set aside.
4	In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt 50 g butter and when frothy, add the minced shallot, salt and pepper. Cook for 1 minute, without browning.
5	Add the cabbage, mix well, lower the heat a little and cover.
6	Cook until cabbage is tender (approx. 5-7 minutes), stirring occasionally. Season with salt, then leave to cool. Preheat oven to 180°C (360°F).
7	Topping Prepare 500 g quiche filling mixture, into which you will add 1 tablespoon mustard.
8	Grate 100 g Cheddar cheese.
9	Assembling the quiche Remove the mold from the fridge, and fill it with the cabbage.
10	Sprinkle with grated cheddar.
11	Pour in the quiche mixture.
12	Baking Bake at 180°C (360°F), low in the oven, for about 30 minutes.
13	Enjoy warm or hot, if possible with a small green salad and vinaigrette dressing.

Remarks

For the pastry, you can use either pâte brisée or pâte feuilletée, depending on your taste.
If you don't have cheddar, replace it with another cheese of your choice, preferably a hard one like Comté or Gruyère, but it's not essential.
