SPINACH, TOMATO AND FETA QUICHE

Steps:

• Two hours before you want to make the quiche, take the dough out of the freezer to defrost.
• When you're ready to start, lay the dough into either a 10 inch quiche or springform baking pan, making sure you have enough dough to form a crust around the edge.
• The crust should come 1 to 1 1/2 inches up the side of the pan.

• Pour the olive oil into a saucepan and, when it is heated, throw in the spinach and cook until wilted.

SPINACH AND FETA QUICHE

Steps:

• To make the pastry, tip the flour, herbs if using and butter into a bowl, then rub together with your fingertips until completely mixed and crumbly. Add 4 tbsp cold water, then bring everything together with your hands until just combined. Roll into a ball for use straight away or chill for up to 2 days.
• Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface to a round about 4cm larger than a 22cm tart dish (the one I use is of glass and about 4 cm deep). 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 dish and run the rolling pin over the top to trim. Chill in the fridge or freezer for 20 mins. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6.
• 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.
• While the tart case cooks, in a frying pan saute the chopped pepper in butter until softened (about 2 minutes). Then add the spinach and sauté just till wilted. Finally add the chopped sun dried tomatoes and turn off the heat.
• Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Gradually add the creme fraiche, then stir in the dried oregano and season. You may not need salt as the feta will provide quite a bit. When the case is ready, sprinkle the crumbled feta over the base, then the sautéed spinach. peppers and tomato and finally pour over the egg mix. Bake for 20-25 mins until set and golden brown. Leave to cool in the case, then remove from the tin.

SPINACH, MUSHROOM, AND FETA QUICHE

Steps:

• STEP 1: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. If your frozen spinach is not already thawed, thaw it in the microwave. Empty the box into a colander and let it drain while you begin to prepare the rest.
• STEP 2: Quickly rinse the mushrooms and slice them thinly. Place the sliced mushrooms in a skillet coated with non-stick spray, add the minced garlic, and sprinkle a little salt and pepper. Turn the heat on to medium-high and saute the mushrooms until they release all of their moisture and no more water remains on the bottom of the skillet (5-7 minutes).
• STEP 3: Spray a pie dish with non-stick spray. Squeeze the rest of the water out of the spinach and spread it out on the bottom of the pie dish. Next add the cooked mushrooms and crumbled feta.
• STEP 4: In a medium bowl whisk together the eggs until fairly smooth. Add the milk, parmesan, and another small sprinkle of pepper. Whisk to combine. (This step can be completed while the mushrooms are cooking) Pour this mixture into the pie dish over the spinach, mushrooms, and feta.
• STEP 5: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over top. Place the pie dish on a baking sheet for easy transfer into the oven. Place the quiche into the preheated oven and bake until it is golden brown on top and the center is solid. Every oven is different but this should take between 45 minutes and an hour. Slice and serve!
