Bacon-Cheese Quiche image

This versatile dish goes from brunch buffet to dinner table in a snap and is great with a leafy green salad. The flaky crust and custard filling make it a perfect vehicle for a variety of mix-ins. Baking the crust before adding the filling, known as blind baking, ensures it won't get soggy. Our favorite pie dough recipe is Basic Pie Crust.

CARAMELISED ONION QUICHE WITH CHEDDAR & BACON



Caramelised onion quiche with cheddar & bacon image

Make quiche Lorraine to perfection every time with this easy recipe for a crisp pastry base and rich smoked bacon, cheese and thyme filling

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Buffet, Dinner, Lunch, Main course, Supper

Time 1h25m

Yield Cuts into 6 - 8 slices

Number Of Ingredients 11

25g butter
2 large onions, halved and thinly sliced
1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves, plus a few sprigs
350g shop-bought shortcrust pastry
plain flour, for dusting
200g pack smoked bacon lardons
300g pot double cream
100ml milk
3 large eggs
2-3 pinches of nutmeg, plus extra for the top
140g mature cheddar, grated

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.

ONION CHEDDAR QUICHE

Tips:

  • Use a good quality bacon. The bacon is one of the main ingredients in this quiche, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for bacon that is thick-cut and has a good smoky flavor.
  • Don't overcook the bacon. Bacon is best when it's cooked until it's crispy but not overcooked. This will help to ensure that the quiche has a nice texture.
  • Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is another important ingredient in this quiche, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a cheese that is sharp and flavorful.
  • Don't overfill the quiche crust. The quiche crust is delicate, so it's important to not overfill it. If you overfill the crust, it will crack and the quiche will not cook evenly.
  • Bake the quiche until it's set. The quiche is done baking when it is set in the center. You can check this by inserting a toothpick into the center of the quiche. If the toothpick comes out clean, the quiche is done.

Conclusion:

Bacon cheddar and onion quiche is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion.
