Filo Pastry
100 g
Calorie controlled cooking spray
5 spray(s)
Onion
1 medium, sliced
Mushrooms
150 g, sliced
Egg, whole, raw

Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 190°C, fan 170°C, gas mark 5. Unroll the sheets of filo pastry. Spray each one with cooking spray and layer them in a 20cm flan tin. Stand the tin on a baking sheet.
2
For the filling, spray a nonstick frying pan with cooking spray and sauté the onion until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for 3-4 more minutes, stirring often. Cool for a few minutes, then tip into the flan case and spread over the base.

Beat together the eggs, milk and herbs. Season and pour into the flan case. Sprinkle with the cheese and bake for 25-30 minutes until set. Cool slightly before serving, garnished with thyme sprigs.
