Roll out pastry to fit a 23 cm flan dish. Prick the pastry several times with a fork. Fill the pastry case with baking beans or with a piece of foil. Place in a preheated oven at 200 C / 400 F / Gas 6 for 5 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat the oil and fry the onion until softened. Add the mushrooms and fry for a further 2-3 minutes.
Remove the pastry case from the oven and spread the mushroom mixture over the base. Add the sweetcorn on top. Mix the eggs and milk together in a bowl and season. Pour the egg mixture into the pastry case.
Sprinkle the cheese on top.
Bake for a further 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
