- Preheat the oven to 190 C / Gas 5. Mix together flour and salt in a bowl then rub in the margarine. Using a knife, mix together whilst adding water until it becomes a stiff dough.
- Turn dough out on to a floured surface and roll out big enough to fit an 18cm flan dish. Add half the cheese into the bottom of the flan dish. Set aside.
- Fry the bacon and allow to go cool.
- Beat the eggs and milk together and add a pinch of salt and pepper. Place the cooled bacon in the bottom of the flan dish and pour over the egg and milk mixture.
- Bake in the oven until golden brown, about 40 minutes.
