- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 200 grams Salmon fillet (cooked and flaked)
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Peel and thinly slice the sweet potatoes into rounds approximately 1/8-inch thick.
Step 3
Brush a 9-inch pie dish with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Arrange the sweet potato slices in an overlapping circular pattern to form a crust along the bottom and sides of the dish.
Step 4
Brush the sweet potato crust with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then remove and set aside.
Step 5
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper until fully combined.
Step 6
Spread the flaked salmon evenly across the baked sweet potato crust. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the salmon, followed by the chopped green onions.
Step 7
Pour the egg mixture over the salmon and cheese, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Step 8
Sprinkle paprika on top for added color and flavor.
Step 9
Bake the quiche in the oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden.
Step 10
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
Step 11
Garnish with fresh dill if desired and serve warm or at room temperature.
