Salmon Quiche


I hail from a place where salmon is always fresh and available so it is no wonder that we get a lot of beautiful quiche that is made from salmon. Try this wonderful salmon quiche recipe for a change from the usual ham and cheese one. Instead of making the pastry from start, I opt for using those ready-made pastry that you can buy frozen from the store.

Ingredients for Salmon Quiche Filling


  • 2 tsp butter
  • 5 scallions (finely chopped)
  • 1 piece of fresh salmon (chopped) or canned flaked salmon
  • dash of paprika
  • salt & pepper
  • 2 tsp parsley
  • 2 tsp dill weed
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk


How to make Salmon Quiche


  • In a saucepan, melt butter and saute scallions till soft
  • Remove from heat and set aside
  • In a bowl, mix the salmon, parsely and dill weed till well incorporated
  • In another bowl, break the eggs and whisk them
  • Add in the fish mixture and paprika
  • Add salt & pepper (adjust to taste)
  • Add in milk
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 45 mins or till golden at the top


I usually like to serve my quiche with seasonal green salads.
