Quiche with minced pork and cheese topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 450 g of ground pork with sage
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 20 grape tomatoes, halved and sprinkled with salt
- 6 large eggs
- 280 g grated sharp cheddar cheese (about 2.5 cups)
- Salt and pepper
- Two 22cm rounds of uncooked frozen pie crust (leave these to thaw while preparing the filling)
Preparation:
- Preheat oven to 180°C.
- In a large skillet, fry the ground beef until golden brown and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Then remove it with a slotted spoon and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine baking powder, tomatoes, and eggs. Add the fried ground beef and cheese to the egg mixture and mix everything together with a large spoon. Season with salt and pepper and divide the mixture between the two pie shells. Bake until the filling has set, about 30 minutes. Serve the pie warm or at room temperature.
Culinary advice: If you want the egg pie to be lighter in color, use ground turkey and egg substitutes.
