1 tbsp mustard
150g crème fraîche

HOW TO PREPARE
1. Preheat the oven to 170°C/325°F/Gas Mark 3. Whisk together the eggs, milk, mustard, crème fraîche, some chives and seasoning. Brush a little of this mixture on to the base of the pastry case and bake for four-five mins to seal the pastry.
2. Blanch the smoked haddock fillets in seasoned water for three mins. Remove with a slotted spoon and leave to cool. Flake the haddock into the pastry case and sprinkle the Gruyère, remaining chives and goat's cheese evenly over the top. Pour over the rest of the creamy mixture and return to the oven to bake for 30-40 mins until set and golden brown.
3. Serve with a wedge of lemon and green leaf salad.
