The first time i tried Quiche is when i was in Shah Alam. My housemate mom baked them for us. It was a Salmon and Potato Quiche. It was the most amazing feeling ever.I was literally making love with my Quiche. Yes! I havent try to baked one since im the only one in my family who enjoyed different style of cooking. But then i came across with this recipe. Thanks to Kak Nazz for sharing this recipe in her Facebook.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons melted butter
½ cup Panko* bread crumbs
4 large eggs
⅓ cup half and half ( replace with cooking cream )
½ teaspoon sea salt
1 small potato, about 2 ounces, cooked, cooled and diced
1 link chicken sausage, pre-cooked, crumbled ( replace with ground beef / chicken )
3 medium green onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh basil ( try to avoid dried basil )
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
2 ounces goat cheese, crumbled ( can be replace with other type of cheese)
fresh ground black pepper
Directions:
1. Place goat cheese in the freezer while you prepare the quiches - 10-15 minutes in the freezer will make it much easy to crumble later.
2. Heat oven to 350°F.
3. Generously spray 24 mini-muffin cups with cooking spray, then wipe with a paper towel to completely coat. Place a small amount of melted butter in each muffin cup (about 1/4 teaspoon)
4. Pat 1 rounded teaspoon of Panko in the bottom of each cup.
5. Beat eggs, half-and-half, and salt in medium bowl until blended. Add cheese, potato, Italian sausage and fresh basil; mix well. Spoon evenly into the mini-muffin cups, about 1 tablespoon each. Remove goat cheese from freezer and divide evenly over the tops. Sprinkle generously with freshly ground black pepper.
6. Bake on lowest rack in 350°F oven until lightly browned and set, about 15-20 minutes. Cool on rack 5 minutes. Loosen quiches from sides of muffin cups with a thin knife. Remove from cups; serve warm. Garnish with finely chopped fresh herbs, if desired.
Notes:
Panko are a type of Japanese bread crumbs. They are very crisp and crunchy and are available nowadays at most grocers, ask if you can't find them. If you don't have any luck finding Panko, just use regular bread crumbs.
