If your pastry is in the fridge, get it out and bring up to room temp about 30 minutes before you start baking. If you're making your pastry from scratch then consider yourself fabulous.
Heat the oil in a frying pan and gently fry the onion for 5-10 minutes to bring out the sweet flavour. Add in the leek and cook for a few more minutes.
Beat your eggs together with a little salt and pepper and leave to one side.
Roll out the pastry to around the width of a £1 coin and line your baking tin with it.
When the onion is well cooked and the leek is no longer raw, tip into the pastry case.
Add the chunks of smoked mackerel evenly around the dish and pour over the beaten egg.
Bake for 30 - 40 minutes or until the quiche no longer looks wet and the centre gives only a very slight wobble when shaken (this will firm up fully as it cools).
Let cool in the tin, then turn out enjoy warm or cold.
