serves 4

INGREDIENTS :
•    1 big quiche
•    1 red bell pepper
•    5 ml (1 tsp.) sugar
•    1 ½ gelatin sheet
•    200 g (7 oz) mascarpone
•    Juice of ½ lemon
•    2 kiwis
•    ½ cucumber

•    In a container, mix the mascarpone with the lemon juice.
•    Wash, peel and dice the kiwis and cucumber.
•    Spread a layer of mascarpone and a few diced cucumber-kiwis over the sweet pepper jelly. Sprinkle with a few poppy seeds and crushed wasabi peas. Refrigerate while the quiche is warming up.

•    Serve the hot quiche with the chilled verrine glasses.
