HEARTY ASPARAGUS PIE



Hearty Asparagus Pie image

This hearty quiche is as attractive as it is flavorful! It looks complicated to make but is actually a simple recipe. The secret is the crust - it's refrigerated pizza dough that I season with basil and Parmesan cheese. But the asparagus spokes are what make this pie special for the holidays. It almost seems too nice to cut, but we're always glad we did when we taste a slice.

ASPARAGUS CASSEROLE



Asparagus Casserole image

Take this traditional southern side dish to the next level with smoky bacon, creamy bechamel, and sharp gruyere.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 bunches asparagus (about 2 pounds), cut into 2-inch pieces (about 6 cups)
4 thick-slices bacon (about 4 ounces), chopped (about 1 cup)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup finely chopped onion (from 1/2 a small onion)
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 cups whole milk
4 large hard-boiled eggs, halved lengthwise
1 cup butter crackers (such as Ritz), coarsely crushed (about 2 ounces)
1 cup shredded gruyere cheese (about 2 1/2 ounces)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees with rack in the upper third. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil; prepare an ice bath. Add asparagus and cook until just tender and bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to ice bath; drain.
  • Return pot to medium heat. Add bacon and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 10 minutes; remove bacon with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate. Discard rendered fat or reserve for another use. Add butter to same pot and heat over medium until foamy. Add onion, nutmeg, cayenne and 1 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in flour and cook, stirring occasionally, until toasted and fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in mustard, then gradually whisk in milk and bring to a boil, whisking often. Reduce to a simmer and cook until thickened slightly, about 5 minutes. (You should have about 2 cups bechamel.) If not using right away, press a sheet of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the sauce to keep a film from forming.
  • Spread 1 cup bechamel evenly across the bottom of a 9-inch-square baking dish. Reserving 1 cup for topping, sprinkle remaining asparagus over bechamel. Arrange reserved bacon in an even layer on top, followed by the sliced eggs, cracker crumbs and remaining bechamel. Sprinkle the reserved 1 cup asparagus down the center of the casserole, then sprinkle the cheese evenly on top and season with black pepper. Bake until sauce is bubbling, about 25 minutes. Turn oven to broil setting and continue to cook until golden-brown on top, 3 to 4 minutes more. Let cool 15 minutes on a wire rack before serving.

Tips:

  • When selecting asparagus, choose spears that are bright green and have tightly closed tips. Avoid spears that are limp or have yellow or brown spots.
  • To prepare the asparagus, trim the tough ends and cut the spears into 1-inch pieces.
  • If using pre-cooked bacon, cook it until crispy and then crumble it. If using raw bacon, cook it in a skillet over medium heat until crispy and then drain on paper towels.
  • To make the egg mixture, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  • To assemble the pie, layer the asparagus, bacon, and cheese in a 9-inch pie plate. Pour the egg mixture over the top.
  • Bake the pie for 35-40 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.
  • Let the pie cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Conclusion:

This bacon, egg, and asparagus pie is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast, lunch, or dinner option. It's perfect for using up leftover asparagus and bacon, and it's also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. The pie is also very versatile, so you can feel free to add or omit ingredients to suit your taste. For example, you could add diced tomatoes, red onion, or mushrooms.
