  1. Preheat the oven to 200 °C (400 °F).
  2. Cut the onion lengthwise in half and thinly slice following the grain.
  3. Cut bacon into small dice. Heat butter in a frying pan and sauté bacon.

  5. Mix eggs, milk, and fresh cream in a bowl and add salt and pepper, to taste.
  6. Roll out the pastry sheet until it is about 3 mm (1/8 in) thick, spread in the pie plate, cut off excess pie dough, and prick vent holes all over the bottom of the sheet with a fork.
  7. Place the sauté into the pie plate, and pour the sauce over the mixture. Top with Parmigiano Reggiano.
  8. Bake in a 200 °C (400 °F) oven for 20 minutes first, then bake at 160 °C (325 °F) for 5 minutes. The quiche is done when the top is browned.
