Steps:
- 1. oil a 9 inch deep dish pie pan with olive oil and add 1 pie crust from pilsbury package. you can make your own crust or also buy deep dish frozen crusts, however the frozen will not hold as much as your own pie pan. I use a deep dish pyrex.
- 2. add a layer of cheese, mushrooms, peppers, onion, ham, remaining cheese, then arrange sliced artichoke hearts on top. I added more cheese on top, If you cook uncovered do not do this as the top layer of cheese gets over cooked as you see in my picture.
- 3. mix together eggs, half and half, fresh thyme leaves, and salt and pepper to taste. I blend with immersion blender until well blended
- 4. preheat oven to 400 F.
- 5. pour mixture into pie pan to fill, cover with foil. I omitted the foil and my top over cooked the cheese.
- 6. put pie pan on rimmed cookie sheet and place in 400 degree oven for 45 minutes, remove foil and cook additional 15 minutes
- 7. check for doneness , it should still have a little giggle but not wet. If too wet cover and return to oven until done.
- 8. rest 10-15 minutes, cut and serve

Steps:
- Clean mushrooms (best not using water) and cut in bite size chunks.
- Butter a 26cm dia. baking dish and place/fit puff pastry into it. Use cuts to form a 2 inch high rim. Perforate pastry using a fork and place in oven at 200°C for about 10 minute (I usually form a circle out of aluminium foil roughly fitting the baking dish's diameter and place it in the dish to prevent the pastry's sides from deforming and baking down).
- While the pastry is in the oven, melt 1 teaspoon of butter in a non stick pan and add minced onion and garlic (until translucent), add chanterelles and let roast (be careful not to burn the onion and garlic).
- Add white wine, stir.
- Salt and pepper to taste (you might want to season with a bit of vegetarian soup granulate, but do not overdo it) and stir in parsley.
- Let mushrooms cook until tender and the liquid has evaporated. Set aside and let cool.
- Mix creme fraiche, 2 eggs, parmesan and half of the mozzarella, salt and pepper until thick and creamy.
- Fill mushroom mix into baking dish, cover with egg-creme fraiche mixture and sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella.
- Bake at 175°C-200° for about 30min. until golden brown and egg mixture has set.
- Serve luke warm and enjoy!

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
- Use Fresh Chanterelle Mushrooms: Fresh chanterelle mushrooms have the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh chanterelles, you can use dried chanterelles. Just be sure to soak them in warm water for 30 minutes before using.
- Sauté the Shallots and Garlic: Sautéing the shallots and garlic in butter until they are softened will help to bring out their flavor.
- Use a Good Quality Gruyère Cheese: Gruyère cheese is a great choice for quiche because it has a nutty, slightly salty flavor that pairs well with the chanterelles.
- Don't Overcook the Quiche: The quiche is done when the center is just set. If you overcook it, the quiche will be dry and crumbly.
Conclusion:
This chanterelle quiche is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of chanterelle mushrooms, Gruyère cheese, and eggs is simply irresistible. Serve it with a side salad or your favorite soup for a complete meal.
