King Charles Will Have This Awesome Quiche For His Coronation And We Got The Royal Recipe
Fit for a King!
The coronation of King Charles III will take place on Saturday, May 6th at Westminster Abbey in London. During the ceremony, the King will be officially crowned alongside his beloved wife Camilla, known as the Queen Consort.
Technically he is already the King but the coronation formalizes the monarch’s role as the head of the Church of England and marks the transfer of their title and power.
Then comes brunch
Queen Elizabeth had Indian-inspired Coronation Chicken served at her banquet 70 years ago in 1953.
Now her son King Charles III – who adores anything with eggs and cheese has tossed aside the chicken and gone for the eggs with his choice of ‘Coronation Quiche’ to celebrate being crowned.
Unveiled yesterday by Buckingham Palace, the dish also appears to have taken inspiration from the monarch’s love of gardening, and features spinach, broad beans and tarragon.
Do real Kings eat quiche?
Quiche was chosen because it is considered a good ‘sharing’ dish to take to a street party and can be served hot or cold. It also suits a wide variety of dietary requirements and preferences and is considered to be ‘not too complicated to make or require costly or hard-to-source ingredients’.
What’s in the Coronation quiche?
The Royal Family’s website described it as ‘a deep quiche with a crisp, light pastry case and delicate flavours of spinach, broad beans and fresh tarragon. ‘Eat hot or cold with a green salad and boiled new potatoes – perfect for a Coronation Big Lunch!’
It’s a vegetarians delight, you notice that there isn’t any sausage or bacon or as they are called in Jolly Old England “bangers”
Rather than post a recipe of the coronation quiche, we thought it would be better to watch a pro make it from scratch, so here’s a video of the quiche being prepared from start to finish and yes it is “fit for a King”!
