- Lay the shortcrust pastry over a non-stick, 15cm loose bottom quiche tin and gently push the pastry to line the tin

- In a bowl mix together two eggs with 100ml of double cream
- Season with salt and pepper and pour into the pastry case
- Scatter in the diced pear and ripped gorgonzola
- Wrap the prosciutto slices gently around your fingers to form a rosebud, and push all four into the mixture

- Allow to sit for 10 minutes and then gently remove from the tin
- Serve warm with fresh herbs.Recipe created by Author of Milly Cookbook, Nicola Millbank.
