Steps

1. In deep ware let’s sift wheat flour of high grade. Add a pinch of salt and 0.5 teaspoons of sugar and mix.

2. Grate cold butter on a large cloth and add to flour mix.

3. With fast movements grind butter with flour to receive small crumbs. Then we will add several tablespoons of ice water to mix and knead homogeneous elastic dough. Let's wrap ready dough in food wrap and send to the fridge for 30-40 minutes so that it is cooled.

4. Meanwhile let’s prepare a stuffing. Wash a fresh salmon and clean from skin and bones. Let's cut fillet of salmon on small pieces.

5. Wash broccoli and sort on small inflorescences. Let's boil broccoli in salted water for 3 minutes then cast away vegetables on a colander and drench with ice water. Join the blanched broccoli with salmon. Add to a stuffing the grated largerly hard cheese and mix.

6. Evenly distribute the cooled shortcrust pastry on a heat resisting ware with a diameter of 22-24 cm, forming high sides. Let's puncture pastry with a fork so that it is not deformed during baking.

7. Over the pastry lay out a piece of a food foil, from above distribute evenly a layer of beans or special ceramic balls for baking. Send a ware with the pastry to the oven warmed up to 180 degrees for 10 minutes so that a basis for pie is baked to semi-readiness.

8. Then take a basis for quiche from an oven. Lay out a fish and broccoli stuffing on pastry in an even layer.

9. Let's prepare filling for the pie. In separate ware let’s combine 2 eggs, sour cream, salt and mix of black ground peppers. Let's mix with a wire whisk, trying to obtain homogeneous consistence.

10. Let's pour egg mix in a stuffing.

11. Send quiche with broccoli and a salmon to the oven warmed up to 180 degrees. Let's bake pie at the medium level for 30-35 minutes. During this time filling has to prepare completely, and the top of pie become golden.
