Quiche Lorraine Style Frittata Recipes

QUICHE LORRAINE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. If you're using bacon, put it into a large frying pan and cook over a gentle-medium heat. Stir occasionally until golden and beginning to crisp up.
• Line a roasting tin, about 20 x 28cm, with baking parchment - just scrunch it roughly at the corners. Whisk together the eggs and milk in a large jug or bowl, then stir in the bacon or ham, plus any fat from the pan, the cheddar and some seasoning. Pour into the tin, scatter with a bit of extra grated cheese, if you like, and bake for 30-35 mins until golden and set. Carry to your picnic in its tin and eat hot, warm or cold, with bread, cherry tomatoes and a few salad leaves.

CRUSTLESS QUICHE

Steps:

• Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a deep 9-inch pie dish with nonstick spray.
• Prepare any mix-ins (see recipe notes for a broccoli bacon version and the blog post above for more suggestions).
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, half-and-half, salt, pepper, mustard, and nutmeg.
• Scatter the mix-ins evenly across the bottom of the prepared pie dish.
• Sprinkle the cheese on top.
• Carefully pour the egg mixture into the dish. Place the dish on a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle the chives over the top.
• Bake the quiche on the baking sheet until the center is set, about 35 minutes. It should look puffed and golden at the edges, and when a thin, sharp knife is inserted in the center, the center should be cooked through without visible liquid. Let cool a few minutes. Cut into big wedges. Enjoy warm.

QUICHE LORRAINE STYLE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Start by cooking the whole new potatoes in boiling water for 15 minutes - until they are just done. Drain and then chop into thick slices.
• Meanwhile fry up the lardons in a non-stick frying pan over a high heat for 2 to 3 minutes until golden. Tip out onto a plate but don't wash up the pan yet!
• Next crack all the eggs into a jug, add half the cheese and some salt and pepper and mix together thoroughly with a fork.
• Put the frying pan back on the heat and add the sliced potato - cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden. Tip onto a plate.
• Now give the frying pan a quick wash and dry, then put it back over a medium heat and melt a small knob of butter. When the butter is foaming, turn the heat down and add the eggs. Set a timer for 5 minutes.
• While the egg is cooking in the pan, place the potato slices on top of the egg (some may sink - don't worry that's fine) and then scatter the lardons on top. Finally scatter over the remaining cheese.
• Next turn your grill up to high and when the timer goes, pop the frittata under the grill to brown - this should take about 3 minutes, but watch your frittata carefully, you don't want it to burn!
• Finally, serve your frittata scattered with parsley and with a side salad...or baked beans, if you prefer!

Steps:

• For the dough: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch pie plate and set aside.
• Pulse the flour and salt in a food processor to blend. Pulse in the egg yolks and butter. (Do not overmix.) Add the ice water through the top and pulse until the dough comes together and forms a loose ball. Turn the dough onto a floured surface.
• Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll into a round, about 10 inches in diameter. Press the dough gently into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pie plate. Ideally, there should be about an inch of excess dough hanging over the edge. Pinch the dough up to create a crimped edge. Place one sheet of parchment over the dough and fill with pie weights. Bake until lightly brown, 16 to 18 minutes. Remove the parchment paper and pie weights and let cool.
• For the quiche custard: Cook the lardons in a skillet until crispy, 5 to 8 minutes. Set aside.
• Whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, milk, nutmeg, hot sauce, Worcestershire, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Stir in the cheeses.
• Place the pie shell on a rimmed baking sheet. Scatter three-quarters of the bacon over the shell, then pour the custard over the top. Bake until set and brown and bubbly on top, 25 to 30 minutes. Garnish with the remaining bacon and chives. Slice and serve.
