SELF CRUSTING QUICHE

This is my favourite quiche recipe mainly because it is very vesatile. I have made a number of variations using the basic egg mixture each time but with different filling. eg. subtituting canned asparagus,and,1/4 pint asparagus brine and 1/4 pint milk instead of 1/2 pint milk. The basic recipe I was given atleast 10 years ago - but I've improved on it over the years.
