ROASTED ASPARAGUS AND SCALLION QUICHE



Roasted Asparagus and Scallion Quiche image

I've made many a spring quiche filled with asparagus and herbs, yet I'd never thought about roasting the asparagus instead of steaming it. But lately I've been buying thick stalks of asparagus, and all I want to do is roast it; roasting intensifies the flavor and the stalks become incredibly succulent, more so than when the asparagus is steamed. This quality isn't lost even when the sliced stalks are hidden inside a quiche.

Categories     main course

Time 1h

Yield 6 generous servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 pound thick asparagus
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 bunch good-size scallions (the kind you get in the farmers market) or 1 1/2 bunches thin scallions (the kind you get in the supermarket) (about 5 ounces), trimmed, quartered lengthwise and sliced thin
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
2 tablespoons minced flat-leaf parsley
2 egg yolks
2 whole eggs
1 (9-inch) whole wheat pie crust, fully baked and cooled
Freshly ground pepper
2/3 cup milk
2 ounces Gruyère, grated (1/2 cup)
1 ounce Parmesan, grated (1/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Break off and discard woody ends of asparagus and place asparagus on the baking sheet. Drizzle on 1 tablespoon of the oil, add salt and pepper to taste and toss together with your hands until asparagus is thoroughly coated with oil. Place in oven and roast 12 minutes, or until tender and lightly browned in spots, turning asparagus halfway through. Remove asparagus from the oven and allow to cool until you can handle it. Slice into 1/2 to 3/4-inch pieces and place in a medium bowl.
  • Turn oven down to 350 degrees. Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat and add scallions. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from heat. Transfer to bowl with asparagus. Add tarragon and parsley and toss together.
  • Beat together egg yolks and eggs in a medium bowl. Set tart pan on a baking sheet to allow for easy handling. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush the bottom of the crust with some of the beaten egg and place in oven for 5 minutes.
  • Add salt (I use 1/2 teaspoon), pepper, and milk to remaining eggs and whisk together.
  • Spread scallion and asparagus mixture in an even layer in the crust. Stir together cheeses and sprinkle evenly on top. Very slowly pour in egg custard over the filling. If your tart pan has low edges, you may not need all of it to fill the shell, and you want to keep the custard from spilling over. Place quiche, on baking sheet, in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until set and just beginning to color on the top. Remove from oven and allow to sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve hot, warm or room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use a deep-dish pie plate or quiche pan to ensure the quiche has enough space to rise and cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the quiche, as this will make it dry and rubbery. A good rule of thumb is to bake it for 45-50 minutes, or until the center is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the quiche cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to cut.
  • Serve the quiche warm or at room temperature. It can be enjoyed on its own or with a side salad.

Conclusion:

The sausage and asparagus quiche is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover sausage and asparagus. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this quiche is a perfect recipe for home cooks of all levels.
