Courgette, feta and broad bean quiche

Be the star baker at all your summer parties with this foolproof veg-filled recipe from celebrated Great British Bake Off judge Paul Hollywood

- 

The wonderful thing about baking in summer is that it presents us with a huge amount of choice. There's so much fruit and veg available so baking is more vibrant and varied than at any other time of year.

I think quiche is ready for a comeback in a big way. It’s fantastic for showcasing seasonal veg and can look stunning as a centrepiece on the table - the key is to keep everything neat and sharp, especially when you're trimming back the edges of the pastry. This quiche is a thing of beauty: courgette ribbons are spiralled in the pastry case and interspersed with broad beans and feta, then baked in a creamy egg custard. You can also throw in some peas if you have any. Please don't over-bake it - you want the filling to still have a slight wobble in the middle.
