It seems that the only whitebait recipes are for whitebait fritters which can get a little boring. So I came up with this recipe as we had oodles of whitebait to get through. These are made in muffins pans but can also be made in mini-muffin pans. The dried herbs and parmesan give the quiches a nice flavour however don't be too heavy-handed with these as you don't want the delicate taste of the whitebait to be overempowered. Makes about 8 muffin size quiches which will serve 2-3 as a meal or 16-20 mini-muffin size quiches.
