How to cook classic quiche? This type of baking is most often an open pie made from yeast, puff pastry or shortbread dough with meat or vegetable filling. Very filling and tasty!

Quiche classic

Ingredients:

  • Dry yeast - 11 grams (fast-acting);
  • Wheat flour - 500 grams;
  • Vegetable oil - 4 tbsp. spoons;
  • Warm water - 180 Milliliters;
  • Salt - 1 teaspoon;
  • Sugar - 1 teaspoon;
  • Ready meat - 500 grams (minced meat);
  • Onion - 1 piece;
  • Bell pepper - 1 piece;
  • Milk - 150 Milliliters;
  • Chicken egg - 2 pieces;
  • Hard cheese - 150 grams.

How to cook “Classic Quiche”

To prepare classic quiche we will need yeast. You can use dry or live yeast. We will need 11 grams of dry (1 tablespoon), and 50 grams of live. Sift the flour into a bowl. Add a teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of sugar. Add 180 ml of warm water to the yeast. Stir and pour the yeast water into the flour. Add 4 tbsp. spoons of vegetable oil. Knead the dough. We will get a soft, pliable dough. It may seem slightly runny. In fact, after the dough has risen, we will add 50 grams of flour and thus “balance” it. There is no need to “beat” the dough with flour at this stage. Cover the bowl with cling film and let the dough rise. This will take you up to 2 hours. While the dough is rising, cut the onion into half rings. Fry the onion in vegetable oil until lightly browned. Add chopped bell pepper to the fried onion. Add prepared minced meat or boiled meat. In my case, I boiled a piece of pork and twisted it through a meat grinder. You can make quiche from raw minced meat. Fry raw minced meat with onions in a frying pan. This way you will save time and effort. The risen dough needs to be kneaded. Add 50-70 grams of flour, roll out and place in shape. Trim off excess dough. Place the cooled filling on the dough and smooth it out. In a bowl, mix 150 ml of milk, 2 eggs, 150 grams of grated hard cheese (I used “Children’s”). Add some salt and pepper. Pour the resulting mixture onto the filling. Distribute the fill evenly. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Bake the pie in the oven for 40 minutes (until golden brown). Serve the pie after cooling it first. Hot baked goods are not very tasty, and they are also harmful to the stomach. It is better to eat the pie warm or cooled.

Shortcrust pastry for pie

1. In order to prepare a magnificent open pie - quiche with meatballs, tomatoes and cream cheese filling, you need to start by kneading unleavened shortbread dough. This dough consists of just three main ingredients and can be kneaded quickly and easily by hand, although I used my hard-working assistant - a food processor equipped with a hook attachment. First, you need to sift the flour into the bowl of the food processor or into a wide bowl if you are going to mix the ingredients with your hands.

2. Then add all the other ingredients for the dough to the flour - an egg, a large pinch of salt and softened butter.


3. All ingredients should be kneaded not too long until the dough becomes elastic and comes together into one smooth lump. If it turns out that the dough does not mold well, seems dry and crumbles, then you should add a little cold water to it, starting with half a tablespoon, and continue kneading. When the dough reaches the desired consistency, roll it into a ball, wrap it in cling film and cool in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

General cooking rules

You can bake a pie with minced meat and potatoes using any type of unsweetened dough. You will have to tinker with yeast dough for the longest time, as it needs to be given time to proof. To make this pastry faster, you can buy the dough at the store.

You can quickly knead the dough for jellied or shortbread pie, but the latter option requires cooling; it is recommended to keep it in the cold for at least an hour after kneading.

At the same time as the dough, you need to prepare the filling. Potatoes can be used both raw and cooked. If you want to put raw potatoes, then cut them either into thin slices or small cubes. It is recommended to pour boiling water over raw potatoes, let sit for a couple of minutes, then drain in a colander and dry. After this treatment, the potatoes in the finished baked goods will not be crunchy on the lips.

You can put pre-boiled or fried potatoes into the filling, you can use specially prepared mashed potatoes or mashed potatoes left over from lunch.

You can use any minced meat; it can be prepared from one type of meat or from two or three types. The latter option is more delicious. To enhance the taste of minced meat, add onions, garlic, herbs and spices. Most often, minced meat is pre-fried or stewed, that is, it is added to the filling already completely prepared.

Interesting facts: It is believed that minced meat dishes are an invention of the Turks. But nowadays, minced meat is used in all countries of the world and in most national cuisines. Depending on ethnic preferences and religious traditions, minced meat is prepared from different types of meat.
