Bacon Spinach And Mushroom Quiche Recipes

SPINACH, BACON AND MUSHROOM QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Sprinkle bottom of pastry-lined quiche/tart pan or pie plate with 1 tbsp dry breadcrumbs (this will absorb any excess moisture).
• Place bacon in a large skillet; cook over medium high heat until evenly brown; remove with slotted spoon and drain on paper toweling; set aside.
• With 2 tbsp of the bacon fat, sauté onion and mushrooms until all the liquid released by the mushrooms has evaporated; add spinach and cook 1-2 minutes, just until spinach wilts; add reserved bacon, coriander and nutmeg and season lightly (remember there will be salt in the cheese); place in pastry and top with 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese.
• Beat together cream cheese, eggs and milk; season to taste; carefully pour over quiche and gently shake quiche to distribute custard.
• Bake in preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until quiche is golden-brown, sprinkling with 1/2 cup of cheese 10 minutes before quiche is done (put the quiche directly on the oven floor for the last 10-15 minutes of baking to crisp up the crust); cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.

ROCKET, MUSHROOM & BACON QUICHE

Steps:

• To make the pastry, rub the flour, salt, butter and thyme into fine crumbs. Mix in the beaten egg and 1 tbsp ice-cold water, then draw together to a moist pastry, kneading lightly. Wrap with cling film and chill for at least 20 mins.
• Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Brush a deep, loose-bottom, 24cm tart tin with oil, then season it. Set a small ball of pastry aside and roll out the rest on a lightly floured surface to a large round, 38-40cm. Lift the pastry into the tin using the rolling pin and press into the sides. Press any cracks together and let the excess overhang.
• Use a small ball of pastry to press the tart case into the flutes. Save a little more pastry for later (see Step 3 in the Step by step images). Prick the base lightly with a fork and chill the tart case, preferably in the freezer, for at least 30 mins. Cut out a circle of baking paper larger than the tart, scrunch it up, unravel and press into the case.
• Fill the case with baking beans, stand on a baking sheet and bake for 20 mins. Remove the paper and beans and brush with the remaining yolk. Return to the oven for 5 mins, brush again and return for a final 10-15 mins until glazed and golden. Remove from the oven. Turn the oven to 140C/fan 120C/gas 1.
• To make the custard, beat together the whole eggs, yolks, crème fraîche, milk and tarragon and season to taste.
• For the filling, sauté the bacon in 1 tbsp oil until browned and beginning to crisp, about 5 mins. Add 2 tbsp oil to the pan and sauté the onion and chicory with the bacon, stirring until lightly cooked, about 5 mins. Strain any juices through a sieve, then tip into a big bowl.
• Heat 2 more tbsp oil and stir-fry the mushrooms over a high heat for 3-5 mins. Strain and mix into the bowl. Wilt the rocket in same pan over a high heat and leave to cool.
• Mix the cheeses and rocket into the custard and whizz with a hand blender until well mixed, then stir in the rest of the filling ingredients.
• Put the tart case back into the oven. Leaving the shelf slightly out, ladle as much filling into the case as you can. Try to ladle the solid filling in first, then top up with custard. Push the shelf in and bake for 50 mins-1 hour until the quiche is set in the middle, turning for even baking.
• Remove and trim the pastry edge so that it's in line with the top of the tin. This is easiest with a small, serrated knife. Cool the tart for at least 1 hour before removing from the tin and serving in slices.

QUICHE ESSENTIALS: SPINACH, MUSHROOM, BACON TART

Steps:

• 1. PREP/PREPARE
• 2. Chef's Tip: One of the tricks to making a good quiche is the proper balance of liquids in the recipe. There are a lot of places that liquids can hide, and ruin the dish. So, we are essentially going to precook our veggies, and remove as much hidden moisture as possible.
• 3. Gather your Ingredients (mise en place)
• 4. Place your pie crust in a tart pan, and blind bake in a 350f (175c) oven until it begins to brown, about 10 - 12 minutes.
• 5. Place the crust in the fridge, and move on to the filling.
• 6. Chef's Note: If you are looking for a really yummy savory pie crust, here ya go: https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/main-course/savory-pies/pastry-essentials-cream-cheese-pie-crust.html
• 7. Add the bacon to a large skillet over medium heat.
• 8. Cook until the bacon begins to brown, and renders its fat into the skillet, about 5 - 7 minutes.
• 9. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon, and drain on paper towels.
• 10. Add the onions to the skillet, and cook them in the bacon grease, until they begin to soften, about 3 - 5 minutes.
• 11. Add the garlic, and cook until fragrant, about 60 seconds.
• 12. Add the mushrooms, and cook until they soften and release their moisture, about 5 - 7 minutes.
• 13. Add the spinach, and continue to cook until most of the moisture has evaporated, about 3 - 5 minutes.
• 14. Take the skillet off the heat.
• 15. Place a rack in the middle position, and preheat the oven to 375f (190c).
• 16. Grate the cheese.
• 17. Chef's Note: You could use different cheeses; however, some cheese get very oily when cooked. I choose Gruyère because it is very stable when heated, and it is a perfect complement to the other ingredients in this recipe.

• 19. Add the cheese, milk/egg mixture to the skillet, and mix to combine.

• 22. Chef's Note: If you really want to give this recipe an added level of flavor, sprinkle a bit of freshly-grated Pecorino Romano on the top before placing it into the oven, and then sprinkle a bit more on when you take it out.
• 23. PLATE/PRESENT
• 24. Serve while still nice and warm. Enjoy
• 25. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
