Ingredients
Quiche crust:
- 200 g all-purpose flour 7 oz/ 1 ⅔ cups, Note
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 90 g unsalted butter very cold, 3.2 oz/ ⅓ cup + 1 tablespoon
- 1 teaspoon dried Herbs de Provence
- 60 ml cold water 2 fl.oz/ ¼ cup
Filling:
- 2 tablespoons dried breadcrumbs
- 2 bunches of green onions
- 3 mini bell peppers of different colors or 1 normal sized bell pepper
- 2 eggs
- 100 g feta 3.5/ oz/ scant 1 cup, crumbled
- 100 g grated gouda or Cheddar, 3.5 oz/ scant 1 cup
- 1 small bunch of dill
Instructions
Quiche crust:
- Make crust: Place the flour, salt, cold butter cubes, and dried herbs in the food processor. Process until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs, then add the cold water and process for just a few seconds until the dough starts to come together.
- Knead: Turn the dough onto the working surface and knead briefly to form a ball.
- Refrigerate: Wrap it in plastic foil and refrigerate it for about an hour.
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius/ 360 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Take the dough out of the fridge, flatten it well, and press it in the pie dish. You could also roll it, but I find pressing it works just as well in this case.
- Bake crust: Prick it with a fork all over and bake it for about 10 to 12 minutes until slightly golden.
Quiche filling:
- Prepare ingredients: Crumble the feta with your hand or with a fork, grate the Gouda or Cheddar cheese, cut the green onions into fine rings, chop the peppers into fine cubes and chop the dill.
- Beat the eggs, add the cheese, vegetables and herbs, some salt and pepper, and mix well.
- Take the quiche crust out of the oven and sprinkle the dried breadcrumbs evenly on top. This will prevent the dough from becoming soggy.
- Pour the filling into the form and continue baking for 30 to 35 minutes until the quiche is golden and set.
- Take out of the oven, let cool slightly and serve with a green salad on the side.
