With the price of meat constantly rising and eggs still relatively cheap, there’s never been a better time to start incorporating more of them into your meal plans.

Living with my boyfriend, who is half Malaysian, has brought endless variety to our weekly meals. This is our version of the curry that her Malaysian mother used to make when she was growing up: slightly spicy and full of flavour, as well as boiled eggs, peas and potatoes. It’s a combination I could never have dreamed of, and I’m so grateful every time it’s on my plate.

Quiche without crust for fryer (or oven)

Not to be confused with an omelet, a crustless quiche is a lighter, quicker, and easier version of the classic pie we all love. It’s creamy and packed with cheese and bacon punches, with bursts of tomato in every bite.

It serves 4
Homework 5 minutes
Cook 15 minutes

50 g striped bacon (I used smoked), chopped
3 eggs
200ml double cream
Salt and pepper
50g cheddar cheese, grated
1½ tablespoon cream cheese
6 cherry tomatoes, half reduced
A handful of spinach chopped up

Fry the bacon until crisp, either on the hob in a skillet or in a deep fryer at 190°C, for five to seven minutes, then allow to cool.

Once the bacon is cool, mix it in a bowl with all the other ingredients.

Heat fryer to 160°C and lightly grease a 20-23cm pie pan or pie pan that will fit in the fryer. (If your air fryer is smaller, you can make four individual crustless quiches on smaller plates.)

Pour the mixture into the dish and bake for 12-15 minutes (or 10-12 minutes for the little ones). It should be lovely and golden and well cooked. If you prefer to use the oven, bake at 200C (180C fan)/390F/gas 6 for 25 minutes.

Cut and serve with a salad.
