Ingredients

Butter, for greasing the pans
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, diced
5 tablespoons chilled water, plus extra as needed
6 ounces chorizo, or spicy Italian sausage, casings removed, and cooked until crisp
4 eggs
1/2 cup Mexican crema, or creme fraiche
1 cup grated Manchego, Swiss, or Pecorino Romano cheese
1/2 cup diced russet potatoes, boiled until tender and cooled
1/4 cup whole milk
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Grease 6 (4-inch) individual tartlet pans with removable bottoms with butter and place on a baking sheet.
Place the flour and salt in food processor and pulse to combine. Add the chilled butter and process to a coarse meal. With the machine running, add 5 tablespoons of water in a steady stream until the mixture forms a dough. Add additional water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if the dough is too dry.
Divide the dough into 6 equal balls and press into the bottom and sides of the prepared tartlet pans. Refrigerate the crusts for 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line the crusts with foil and fill with pie weights (or dried beans). Bake for 15 minutes. Cool completely (can be made 1 day ahead).
Mix the chorizo and remaining ingredients. Pour into the prepared crusts, dividing equally. Bake until the quiches are puffed and cooked through, or when a knife inserted into center of the quiches comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature.

These quiches were a disaster. The crust was soggy and the filling was bland. I would not recommend this recipe.

I had a hard time finding chorizo at my grocery store. I ended up using a spicy Italian sausage instead.

These quiches were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add a little bit more milk or cream next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the quiches turned out great. They were a little bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's just because I used a spicy chorizo.

These quiches are delicious! The chorizo gives them a nice spicy kick and the cheese is melted and gooey. I will definitely be making these again.

I've made these quiches several times and they always turn out perfect. I love the combination of flavors and the crust is always flaky and golden brown.

These quiches are so easy to make and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I love that I can make them ahead of time and just pop them in the oven when I'm ready to serve.
