Egg kheema Quiche - using Wheat flour crust


Earlier I made Quiche using normal pie crust ( made of all purpose flour ) , but I wanted to try something healthier than the normal ones. I used the crust made of wheat flour and substituted butter with vegetable oil. My hubby is always conscious about health , so wanna try something new for him which turned out really well.

  • Combine all dry ingredients together.
  • Add oil and mix them well by combining them using only fingers.
  • Once the oil is combined well with the flour , add cold water little by little and form a dough..
  • Then wrap the dough using cling flim wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours.
