175g / 6oz plain flour, plus extra for dusting
75g / 2¾oz butter, plus extra for greasing the flan dish
Pinch of salt
FOR THE FILLING
250g / 9oz cheddar cheese, grated 100ml / 3½fl oz milk
4 tomatoes, sliced 200ml / 7fl oz double cream 200g / 7oz streaky bacon, chopped 2 sprigs fresh thyme
5 free-range eggs, beaten freshly ground black pepper
Method
To make the pastry, sift the flour together with a pinch of salt in a large bowl. Rub in the butter until you have a soft breadcrumb texture. Add enough cold water to make the crumb mixture come together to form a firm dough, and then rest it in the fridge for 30 minutes. Roll out the pastry on a light floured surface and line a 22cm / 8½ inch well-buttered flan dish. Don’t cut off the edges of the pastry yet. Chill again.
Preheat the oven to 190°C / 170°C Fan / Gas 5.
Remove the pastry case from the fridge and line the base of the pastry with baking parchment and then fill it with baking beans. Place on a baking tray and bake blind for 20 minutes. Remove the beans and parchment and return to the oven for another 5 minutes to cook the base.
Reduce the temperature of the oven to 160°C /140°C Fan/Gas 3.
Sprinkle the cheese into the pastry base and add the sliced tomatoes. Fry the bacon pieces until crisp and sprinkle them over the top. Combine the eggs with the milk and cream in a bowl and season well. Pour over the bacon and cheese. Sprinkle the thyme over the top and trim the edges of the pastry.
Bake for 30–40 minutes, or until set. Allow to cool and set further.

PR28 – “The Dog Who Bit The Ball” by Pam Ayres
I am the dog who bit the ball
And ruined the games of goals,
I wasn’t to know, a ball won’t go
If you’ve added a couple of holes.
PR31 – “ A Dog At Home” by Pam Ayres
I always like a dog at home,
It makes it nice and hairy,
And if a burglar calls,
Your dog will make the place sound scary,
Your dog will idolise you,
And his love will never stop,
You only need some food and drink,
A bucket and a mop.
