- Preheat the oven to 190 C / Gas 5. Grease a quiche dish.
- Roll out the pastry to about 1cm (1 1/2 in) thick. Line the prepared quiche dish with the pastry leaving the overhang until later. Cover the pastry with a square of baking paper weighted down with some dried peas
- Bake in the oven for around 15 minutes. Once this is done remove from oven and trim the pastry around the top of the quiche dish. Line the bottom of the pastry with the cooked streaky bacon and sautéed mushrooms.
- Break all the eggs into a large bowl and beat well, add approx 100ml of milk and a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour this over the contents of the quiche dish and sprinkle in a few spoonfuls of sweetcorn.
- Sprinkle the cheese over the top and adding a few slices of tomato for decoration is optional at this point.
