1. 1Heat the oven to 400F. Dock the pie shell with a fork and bake for 10 to 15 minutes until lightly golden.
2. 2In the meantime, heat the olive oil.
3. 3Add the onions along with the garlic and chilli flakes and cook on high until the onion caramelise (about ten minutes).
4. 4Now add the mushrooms and continue to cook on high so the mushrooms caramelise as well, about five minutes. Take off the fire, add the thyme and salt and pepper to taste.
5. 5Beat the eggs in a large bowl with the cream and half the quantity of cheese.
6. 6Add the onion-mushroom mixture and mix well.
7. 7Place the pie shell on a cookie tray to catch any spillage.
8. 8Pour the filling into the pie shell. Top the quiche with the remaining cheese.
9. 9Drop the temperature to 375F and cook until the filling is set and golden.
10. 10Serve when still warm from the oven.
