Artichoke, Leek, and Ham Quiche Filling image

Only one word describes this quiche....WOW!! It is so flavorful and rich that it is best served as an appetizer. Use with the Quiche Crust #200939. Both are from Jan Roberts-Doninguez's "The Onion Cookbook".

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 11-inch quiche, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 (6 ounce) jars marinated artichoke hearts
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup leek, chopped (white and pale green portions only, about 1 large leek)
1/2 cup ham, finely minced
1 cup swiss cheese, grated
1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 1/4 cups ricotta cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
4 eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Drain the artichoke hearts, reserving the marinade.
  • Chop the artichoke hearts into 1/4 inch dice and set aside.
  • Pour about half of the reserved marinade int a skillet and heat over medium-high heat.
  • Add the garlic and leeks to the skillet; sautè until the leaks are tender and the marinade has reduced and thickened (about 5 minutes).
  • Add the chopped artichoke hearts, stir to combine well, then remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
  • In a medium-size bowl, combine the ham, cheeses, sour cream, eggs, salt, pepper and thyme.
  • Stir in the artichoke mixture.
  • Pour into a prepared quiche crust (#200939) and bake for about 45 minutes, or until the filling is set and knife inserted in the center comes out clean. (The filling will still "jiggle" slightly.).
  • Remove the quiche from the oven and serve either warm or at room temperature.

This quiche is a great way to use up leftover ham. It's also a great meal to make ahead of time.

This quiche was just okay. The crust was a little too dry and the filling was a bit bland. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

I'm not a big fan of quiche, but this one was surprisingly good. The crust was flaky and the filling was creamy and flavorful. I would definitely make this again.

This quiche was a hit at my brunch party! The artichoke, leek, and ham filling was creamy and flavorful, and the crust was flaky and golden brown. I would definitely make this quiche again.
