VEGAN SPINACH & CHERRY TOMATO QUICHE



Vegan spinach & cherry tomato quiche image

Enjoy this versatile vegan tart with spinach and tomato. You could use almost any vegetable - try roasted sweet potatoes or caramelised onions or leeks

Provided by Katy Gilhooly

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 16

325g wholemeal flour
2 tsp mustard powder
90ml olive oil
400g extra-firm tofu, drained
3 tbsp nutritional yeast flakes
¼ tsp ground turmeric
¼ tsp ground white pepper
½ tsp onion granules
2 tsp cornflour
125ml oat or soy milk
small bunch of basil, leaves shredded, plus a few extra leaves to serve
2 tsp olive oil
100g baby leaf spinach
225g cherry tomatoes, halved
2 thyme sprigs, leaves picked
green salad, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. To make the pastry, mix the flour and mustard powder with a generous pinch of salt in a large bowl. Drizzle in the olive oil, stirring continuously until evenly dispersed through the flour mixture. Slowly stir in 6-8 tbsp water to bring the pastry together.
  • Roll the pastry out between two sheets of baking parchment into a 3mm-thick circle and use it to line a 22cm tart tin. Chill for 20 mins. Line the pastry case with baking parchment and fill with baking beans. Bake for 15 mins. Remove the parchment and beans and bake for another 10 mins until the pastry is golden and dry.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. For the filling, tip the tofu, nutritional yeast, turmeric, white pepper, onion granules, cornflour and 1 tsp salt into a food processor. Blitz together briefly, then, with the motor running, slowly add the milk until you have a smooth, thick filling (this may take a few minutes). If the food processor starts to strain, add an extra 1 tbsp milk. Scrape the filling into a large bowl and stir in the shredded basil leaves. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed.
  • Heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan and cook the spinach, cherry tomatoes and thyme for 2-3 mins until the spinach has just wilted. Stir most of the tomatoes and spinach into the filling mixture, reserving a few tomatoes for the top of the quiche. Spoon the filling into the pastry case and smooth the surface with the back of the spoon. Press the reserved tomatoes into the top and bake for 30 mins until the quiche is golden and just set in the middle. Leave to cool for a few minutes, then scatter over a few extra basil leaves, slice and serve with a green salad.

Tips:

  • Use firm or extra-firm tofu for the best results. This will help the quiche hold its shape and prevent it from becoming too watery.
  • Press the tofu well before using it. This will help remove excess moisture and make the quiche less likely to crumble.
  • Use a good quality olive oil or avocado oil. This will help give the quiche a rich flavor.
  • Add your favorite seasonings to the tofu mixture. This could include garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper, or any other herbs or spices that you like.
  • Don't overcook the quiche. The center should be just set, but still slightly wobbly.
  • Let the quiche cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will help it to firm up and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

This eggless tofu spinach quiche is a delicious and healthy breakfast, lunch, or dinner option. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this quiche a try!
