Meat-Free Ham and Leek Quiche
Our delicious Meat-Free Ham and Leek Quiche is a savoury tart filled with a creamy custard made from Oggs and oat milk, and filled with chunks of Richmond Meat-Free Ham Slices and leeks. Baked until it is golden brown and the custard has set. The quiche is served warm and is a favourite dish to serve as a main course or as a light lunch. It can be enjoyed with a salad, or as a side dish with other dishes.
Cooking Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C
Unroll the pastry and use to line a 20cm fluted flan tin, pressing the pastry into the edges and trimming off the excess from the top. Leave to rest in the fridge for 30 minutes
Line the pastry case with a piece of scrunched up baking parchment and fill with baking beans or rice – this stops the base of the pastry case from rising as it cooks. Place the flan tin on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, then remove the baking parchment and baking beans and bake the pastry case for a further 5 minutes until golden. Remove from the oven and set aside and reduce the oven temperature to 180°C.
Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and cook the leek slices for 10 minutes until softened and starting to brown. Then tip into the pastry case and spread out over the base.
In a jug whisk together the Oggs, milk and cheese and season with salt and pepper. Cut the ham slices into strips and lay over the leeks then pour over the Ogg mix covering the ham and leeks evenly. Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes until set.
Remove from the oven leave to cool slightly and cut into quarters – serve 1 quarter with some salad and keep the rest in an airtight container in the fridge for another day.
