Garden Tomato Quiche Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. deep-dish pie plate. Trim crust to 1/2 in. beyond rim of plate; flute edge. Refrigerate while preparing filling. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, saute onion in butter until tender. Add the tomatoes, salt, pepper and thyme. Cook over medium-high heat until liquid is almost evaporated, 10-15 minutes. Remove from the heat. , Sprinkle 1 cup cheese over crust. Cover with tomato mixture; sprinkle with remaining 1 cup cheese. In a small bowl, beat eggs until foamy. Beat in cream. Pour over filling. , Bake 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 325°. Bake until top begins to brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 35-40 minutes longer. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.

Steps:

• Let pastry shell stand at room temperature for 10 minutes. Line unpricked pastry shell with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Bake at 400° for 4 minutes. Remove foil; bake 4 minutes longer. Cool on a wire rack. Reduce heat to 350°., In a large skillet, saute the onion, mushrooms and squash in butter until tender. Add spinach and garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Spoon into crust; top with cheese. , In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, cream, salt, rosemary and pepper until blended; pour over cheese. , Cover edges of crust loosely with foil. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.

Steps:

• Pre-bake your pie shell until lightly browned. You can do this in advance.
• Preheat the oven to 375.
• Peel and chop the tomatoes. Separate the flesh from the juices and reserve the juices.
• Heat the oil in a skillet and saute the chopped onion.
• Add the tomatoes and spinach (or zucchini) and cook on med/low until the juices are gone. I usually add more of the tomato juice and reduce it again to intensify the tomato flavor. If you do not get this pretty dry it will be too wet for the quiche and you'll have a runny quiche.
• Place the milk, eggs, nutmeg, thyme and salt and pepper in a bowl and whisk until eggs are incorporated.
• Sprinkle a thin layer of cheese on the bottom of the pie shell. Add the tomato and spinach (or zucchini) and spread evenly over the cheese. Add the rest of the cheese.
• Gently pour the wet ingredients over the layers in the pie shell. If you are using bacon sprinkle it on now.
• Bake until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. It will probably take 45-60 minutes. It depends on how cold your ingredients were. I usually cover it loosely with foil half way through to prevent the crust from over browning.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first four ingredients. Cut in shortening until crumbly. Add water, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. Refrigerate for 30 minutes., On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to fit a 9-in. pie plate; transfer pastry to plate. Trim to 1/2 in. beyond edge of plate; flute edges. Bake at 375° for 10 minutes. Cool completely., Place tomatoes in the crust; sprinkle with salt, basil, pepper, onions and cheeses. In a small bowl, whisk the flour, eggs and milk until smooth. Pour over filling., Bake at 375° for 40-45 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting., Refrigerate leftovers.

Steps:

• To make the pastry, tip the flour and butter into a bowl, then rub together with your fingertips until completely mixed and crumbly. Add 8 tbsp cold water, then bring everything together with your hands until just combined. Roll into a ball and use straight away or chill for up to 2 days. The pastry can also be frozen for up to a month.
• Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface to a round about 5cm larger than a 25cm tin. Use your rolling pin to lift it up, then drape over the tart case so there is an overhang of pastry on the sides. Using a small ball of pastry scraps, push the pastry into the corners of the tin. Chill in the fridge or freezer for 20 mins. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6.
• In a small roasting tin, drizzle the tomatoes with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Put the tomatoes in a low shelf of the oven.
• Lightly prick the base of the tart with a fork, line the tart case with a large circle of greaseproof paper or foil, then fill with baking beans. Blind-bake the tart for 20 mins, remove the paper and beans, then continue to cook for 5-10 mins until biscuit brown.
• When you remove the tart case from the oven, take out the tomatoes, too.
• While the tart is cooking, beat the eggs in a large bowl. Gradually add the cream, then stir in the basil and season. When the case is ready, sprinkle half the cheese over the base, scatter over the tomatoes, pour over the cream mix, then finally scatter over the rest of the cheese. Bake for 20-25 mins until set and golden brown. Leave to cool in the case, trim the edges of the pastry, then remove from the tin. Scatter over the remaining basil and serve in slices.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F Prepare single pie crust, adding garlic salt to mixture. Roll out dough. Place in 9-inch pie plate or quiche dish. Press to fit without stretching dough. Brush with beaten egg. Bake 10 minutes. Place on cooling rack. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.
• Cook and stir onion in 1 Tablespoon oil in small skillet on medium heat until softened. Spoon into partially baked pie crust. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
• Combine 1/4 cup oil, basil, pepper and garlic in small food processor. Blend at high speed until smooth.
• Beat eggs in large bowl. Add half-and-half, ricotta cheese, and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese. Stir or whisk until well blended. Add basil mixture slowly. Stir until well blended. Pour over cheese in pie crust.
• Bake at 350F for 20 minutes. Top with tomato slices. Bake 30 minutes or until center is firm. Immediately sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese. Serve hot, warm or cold.

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.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion and garlic in the hot oil until garlic is fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add kale, salt, and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until kale is wilted, about 5 minutes. Stir tomato and carrots into kale mixture; cook for 5 more minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
• Whisk eggs and milk together in a bowl. Stir Cheddar cheese, kale mixture, and parsley into egg mixture; pour into the prepared pie dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until quiche is set in the middle and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Cool in pie dish for 2 to 3 minutes before slicing.
