About a...Food Blog
My roommates and I were
always talking about making a quiche, so when I got the task to write about a food
blog, I started looking for a recipe. We all love broccoli so we decided to
make a broccoli-quiche. I found a recipe on http://5elementfood.blogspot.co.at. According to the recipe you need:
Ham and Broccoli Quiche
1 prebaked pie shell (only lightly browned)
3 large eggs
1 1/2 cups whole milk (or cream, or half and half or lowfat or
combination)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1 cup chopped ham
1/2 red onion, sauteed in 1 Tablespoon butter until lightly carmelized
1 cup broccoli florets, cut up and lightly steamed
We decided to change the recipe a little. Instead of ham we used ground
meat. We didn’t have a red onion so we used a white one. We used a lot more
broccoli and because we were over-motivated we had the great idea to make the
pie crust ourselves, which was not the best idea because the texture was ”interesting”
and we ended up eating the quiche without crust. Anyway for the crust we used
butter, flour, water and salt.
Then we followed the recipe again and mixed the milk, cream, eggs, salt,
pepper and some herbs together. We steamed the broccoli, fried the meat and
mixed everything together with the onions. We put the crust in the baking dish
and put the meat-broccoli mix, some cheese and, like the cherry on the cake,
some pine nuts, on top. According to the recipe it has to bake for about 40
minutes.
All in all we had a great evening a lot of fun and the quiche (unfortunately
without crust) was very delicious. We will definitely try this recipe again!
