Method

1. Preheat oven to 215ºC
2. Roll out the sheet of pastry onto a floured surface or keep on the greaseproof
3. Using a sharp knife, draw around a large plate to create a circle slightly bigger than your flan dish
4. Press the dough into the corners of the dish so it fits snug. Snip off any excess around the edge
5. Spray some tin foil with the nonstick cooking oil and cover the dough. Fill with either dried beans, pie beads or dry rice
6. Place in the oven for 10 minutes until golden
7. Whilst the pastry is cooking, spray some oil in a frying pan and place over a medium/high heat. Add the cubes of Chicken Italia burger and cook for about 8 minutes until evenly browned.
8. Chop in the sundried tomato and continue to fry off for a further minute then remove from the heat
9. Remove the pastry from the oven and take out the foil along with the weighted items
10. Mix together the egg, cream cheese & milk then stir in the mozzarella
11. Add the diced burger and tomatoes and make sure both mixtures are combined. If you have some fresh basil, tear some leaves into the mixture too.
12. Pour mixture into the pastry and return to the oven. Reduce the temperature to 180ºC and bake for a further 10-12 minutes until the mixture has set and turns golden
13. Remove from the oven and leave to cool for 5-10 minutes
