Method:

Preheat the oven to 180 ºC (350 ºF). Grease a 24 cm ovenproof pie dish with margarine.
Mix the crushed water biscuits, cayenne pepper and butter together. Press onto the bottom and against the sides of the prepared pie dish. Sauté the mushrooms in a little oil until golden brown. Add the ham and stir-fry lightly before turning into the prepared pie dish. Beat the cream cheese and eggs together. Add the seasonings and pour over the mushroom mixture in the pie dish. Arrange the tomatoes on top and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the filling has set.
Makes a large quiche.
