Spinach Caramelized Onion And Tomato Quiche Recipes

CARAMELIZED ONION AND SPINACH QUICHE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, add in flour, salt, cold butter and lard.
• Using a pastry cutter, cut butter and lard into the flour until mixture resembles small pea size shapes.
• Fill a large glass with water and ice. Using a tablespoon measure, spoon in 5 tablespoons of the ice water into the flour and butter mixture. Using a fork or spatula, mix well. You may need to add in more water if still floury and needed. You want the dough to just begin to come together. Do not add too much water.
• Sprinkle flour out onto the counter and spoon out dough on top. Roll around flour so that all sides are covered and bring together into a ball shape. Split dough in half making 2 pie dough balls. This recipe makes 2 pie shells.
• Roll out one half with a rolling pin in a circle until it is larger than your pie plate.
• Gently pick up the crust and place into the plate plate. Make sure it get the dough to lay evenly all the way to the edges. Crimp your edges with your fingers, cutting off any excess if needed.
• Once your pie crust is in the pie plate, place a sheet of wax paper or parchment paper over the top, larger than the actual pie plate. Place pie weights or dried beans over top of the paper and spread evenly over the bottom of the shell, making sure to get all the way to the edges, corners, and sides. Place in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Once finished, remove and let cool until the quiche mixture is ready. Remove the pie weights once cooled down a bit.
• In a large skillet, add in 1 tablespoon of butter and the onion, thinly sliced.
• Turn on medium low and cook for 30 minutes, stirring often. Over the next 30 minutes, the onions will turn a caramel color. Make sure to keep an eye on them and do not turn the heat up. This can be done while the crust is blind baking.
• With about 5 minutes left, add in the spinach and another 1/2 tablespoon of butter. Cook until the spinach has wilted then remove from the heat.
• In a large bowl, add 8 eggs and beat with a fork until the yolks are broken.
• Add in the milk, salt, red pepper flakes, white pepper, and shredded swiss cheese. Mix well.
• Add in the caramelized onions and spinach. Mix until everything is evenly distributed.
• Pour carefully into the blind-baked pie crust and place into the oven to bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until the middle is set and doesn't jiggle anymore.

VEGAN SPINACH & CHERRY TOMATO QUICHE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. To make the pastry, mix the flour and mustard powder with a generous pinch of salt in a large bowl. Drizzle in the olive oil, stirring continuously until evenly dispersed through the flour mixture. Slowly stir in 6-8 tbsp water to bring the pastry together.
• Roll the pastry out between two sheets of baking parchment into a 3mm-thick circle and use it to line a 22cm tart tin. Chill for 20 mins. Line the pastry case with baking parchment and fill with baking beans. Bake for 15 mins. Remove the parchment and beans and bake for another 10 mins until the pastry is golden and dry.
• Reduce the oven temperature to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. For the filling, tip the tofu, nutritional yeast, turmeric, white pepper, onion granules, cornflour and 1 tsp salt into a food processor. Blitz together briefly, then, with the motor running, slowly add the milk until you have a smooth, thick filling (this may take a few minutes). If the food processor starts to strain, add an extra 1 tbsp milk. Scrape the filling into a large bowl and stir in the shredded basil leaves. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed.
• Heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan and cook the spinach, cherry tomatoes and thyme for 2-3 mins until the spinach has just wilted. Stir most of the tomatoes and spinach into the filling mixture, reserving a few tomatoes for the top of the quiche. Spoon the filling into the pastry case and smooth the surface with the back of the spoon. Press the reserved tomatoes into the top and bake for 30 mins until the quiche is golden and just set in the middle. Leave to cool for a few minutes, then scatter over a few extra basil leaves, slice and serve with a green salad.
