CANADIAN BACON ONION QUICHE (OAMC)

Steps:

• In mixing bowl, use beaters to cream butter, add cottage cheese and beat with mixer, using spoon gradually stir in flour.
• Form into disk, cover with plastic wrap, and chill for at least 1 hour or up to two days. I cut plastic wrap big enough so that I can later roll pastry out on it so clean up is easy.
• Roll out pastry to fit a 9 inch pie plate.
• Transfer pastry to greased pie pan.
• Trim pastry to 1/2 inch beyond edge of plate; flute edges.
• In skillet, sauté onions in remaining butter (1 1/2 t.) until golden brown. It is important to get the onions done to your preference because the baking steps do not cook it much more than this step does.
• Remove skillet from heat.
• Stir in garlic and set aside.
• Put cheese at bottom of pastry, top with Canadian bacon.
• in large bowl, add egg and peppers, lightly beat, stir in onion mixture from skillet.
• Pour into pastry shell.
• At this point, either wrap well and freeze or bake at 350 degrees for 40 to 45 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. (After 25 minutes, I peek to see if crust is browned enough and cover just the crust with foil so it is browned just enough. I hate real dark crust. It is not easy to do but worth it IMO.) Let sit for 10 minutes before cutting.
• TO USE FROZEN QUICHE: Remove frozen quiche from freezer 30 minutes before baking. Put rack in middle. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place pie on a baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes, then cover with foil and move to lowest shelf and bake another 25 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.

• Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake for an additional 35 minutes, until top of quiche begins to turn brown.

POTATO-CRUSTED QUICHE WITH SMOKED CHEDDAR AND CANADIAN BACON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 10-inch glass pie dish with vegetable oil spray. Steam potato rounds until just tender, about 6 minutes. Transfer to rack and cool. Line prepared pie dish with enough potato rounds to cover, overlapping slightly (reserve any remaining potatoes for another use).
• Heat olive oil in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion, red bell pepper and thyme and sauté 5 minutes. Add Canadian bacon; sauté until heated through, about 1 minute. Spoon bacon mixture over potatoes in pie dish.
• Whisk eggs, salt and pepper in large bowl to blend. Mix in cheese. Pour egg mixture over bacon mixture in dish. Bake quiche until set in center, about 35 minutes. Cool 20 minutes. Cut into wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature.

CARAMELISED ONION QUICHE WITH CHEDDAR & BACON

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large non-stick frying pan, add the onions and cook for 20 mins, stirring now and then, until they are soft and golden brown. Season, stir in the thyme leaves, then transfer to a plate to cool.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 with a large baking sheet inside. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface until large enough to line a 25cm loose-bottomed tart tin, with a little overhang of pastry all the way round the top. This will stop the pastry shrinking in the oven later. If there is more overhang than you need, trim off the excess with scissors. Gently press the pastry into the sides of the tin and prick the base with a fork. Chill for 15 mins.
• Line the pastry case with a sheet of baking parchment and fill with ceramic baking beans. Bake for 15 mins on the hot baking sheet (this helps to prevent a soggy bottom). Carefully remove the parchment and beans, then return to the oven for 10 mins more until the pastry looks cooked like shortbread, but is not too brown.
• Meanwhile, put the bacon in the pan you cooked the onions in (there's no need to wash it first or add any oil) and fry for 10 mins until golden. Lift from the pan onto kitchen paper to remove any excess fat. Beat the cream, milk and eggs with seasoning and nutmeg, then stir in the bacon and half the cheese.
• Remove the pastry case from the oven and reduce heat to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Spoon the caramelised onions evenly over the base of the pastry case. Pour in the bacon mixture, then scatter with the remaining cheese, the thyme sprigs and a little nutmeg. Bake for 25-30 mins until golden and the filling is just set with a slight wobble in the centre.
• Trim the excess pastry and leave to settle for 10 mins, then remove from the tin and slice.

BACON AND SWISS QUICHE

Steps:

• In medium bowl, mix flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost leaves side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added if necessary).
• Gather pastry into a ball. Shape into flattened round on lightly floured surface. Wrap flattened round of pastry in plastic wrap and refrigerate about 45 minutes or until dough is firm and cold, yet pliable. This allows the shortening to become slightly firm, which helps make the baked pastry more flaky. If refrigerated longer, let pastry soften slightly before rolling.
• Heat oven to 425°F. Roll pastry on lightly floured surface, using floured rolling pin, into circle 2 inches larger than upside-down 9-inch quiche dish or glass pie plate. Fold pastry into fourths; place in quiche dish or pie plate. Unfold and ease into dish, pressing firmly against bottom and side.
• Sprinkle bacon, cheese and onion in pastry-lined quiche dish. In large bowl, beat eggs slightly with fork or wire whisk. Beat in remaining ingredients. Pour into quiche dish.
• Bake 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 300°F. Bake about 30 minutes longer or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Sprinkle with additional bacon. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
