Dough:

3 cups flour

1 tsp salt

1 cup margarine

3/4 cup cold water

1 tsp vinegar

1 egg

Filling:

1 cup milk

1 cup heavy cream

4 egg

1 tsp salt

1 tsp pepper

1 tbsp oil

1 tsp dried thyme (optional)

1 cup of sliced mushrooms

1 cup of leeks washed and sliced (you can choose any other combination of vegetables that you like)

1 cup mozzarella cheese

1.  Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

2.  In a large bowl, use your fingers to  blend the flour, salt, and margarine together, until small pieces form, and dough looks a bit more yellow.

3.  Add the water, vinegar and egg to the mixture and blend together just until dough forms.  Be careful not to over-mix the dough. You may have some pieces that are not fully incorporated. Flour the dough and the counter, and roll it out to 1/4 to 1/2 inch thickness. 

4.  Place dough in 9-inch spring form pan or anything of equivalent size. There should be some extra dough left-over. Trim sides.

5.  For filling:  Heat a saucepan with 1 tbsp oil and lightly sautee the mushrooms until they are just softening. For added flavor, add 1 tsp of dried thyme as they cook.

6.  In a mixing bowl, beat eggs with a fork and then add milk, cream, salt and pepper.  Mix and pour into quiche dough.  Place the vegetables and mozzarella cheese inside, give it a little mix to spread the vegetables evenly, and bake for 1 hour.
