With a wooden spoon, heat the mixture rapidly until the lumps become smooth and mixture comes away from the sides of the pan. Cool for 10 minutes.

Beat the eggs gradually into the mixture until you have a soft, but still quite stiff, dropping consistency. You may not need all the egg.

Stir in the cheese, then spoon the mixture round the sides of the greased pie dish.

Gradually stir in the milk and heat until thickened. Pour into the center of the pastry.

Bake for 35-40 minutes until risen and golden brown, sprinkling on the almonds for the last 5 minutes.
