A Blast from the Past

6 Comments

Last week I had lunch at a local cafe and I chose a salmon and dill tart which was listed as gluten-free.  Imagine my surprise when I discovered that the base was actually rice!  I remembered a long-forgotten recipe which I used to make that was exactly the same except mine used tuna rather than salmon.

You could use any variation of a quiche filling that you wish but this is the idea for the base which is simple and gluten-free.

A quantity of cooked rice – about 1 – 1.5 cups and 1 well-beaten egg.  Stir the egg into the hot rice and press into a pie/flan dish.  Chill until firm then fill and bake as per any quiche recipe.

  1. Hi Yvonne I make a tuna mornay with added veg and cheese on top then place inside a similar rice base and bake untill the cheese has browned. Very nice indeed and also nice cold.

  2. I think it will fit nicely with your philosophy as you can literally fill it with anything you choose. Would be great for the last of the summer vegies. 🙂
