injunjaneMy version of the quiche recipe.
CAUTION! Sour cream is not used in French cuisine proper. Like, AT ALL. After 3 year of close acquaintance with French people and their culture I found out that sour cream is not even produced and sold in France.
Even the French diary company PRESIDENT which is producing it for the sales abroad does not sell it in their home country.
For an Eastern European it's a nightmare, we put sour cream pretty much in everything.
So, my quiche dough does have sour cream added. French people tasted and approved :)
For the dough:
250g baking margarine (I use 1 brick of HERA)
190g sour cream (approximately 1 cup, I use 1 package of any supermarket sour cream)
sodium bicarbonate, the amount taken by the table knife tip
2-3 cups of fine white flour (you should get a rather stiff dough, so adjust accordingly)
Melt the margarine on low fire, cool down, poor into the kitchen mixer bowl, add sour cream, mix and gradually pour the flour mixed with sodium bicarbonate
For the filling:
2 chicken breasts cut into cubes, 1-2 onions sliced finely - fry in sunflower oil and cool down
250g of any hard cheese, I usually use several types one of which is Cheddar and another Edam or Emmental, grated. Add 150g of any blue cheese chopped into small cubes, mix in a bowl with the fried chicken and onions, add chopped scallions
or
250g chopped mushrooms, 2 sliced onions, fry in sunflower oil and cool down
and same cheeses
or
1 zukkini, 2 bellpeppers and 1 onion sliced into thin strips, fry in sunflower oil and cool down
300g of any suitable grated cheese according to your taste
or
500g of smoked salmon
300g of any matching grated cheese
Mix it in a big bowl, add 1-2 egss and 150g of fresh cream and mix again, adjust the taste with salt and pepper.
Shape the dough into either one large or several smaller circles and put into the baking form(s) (oil it inside before putting the dough in). Fill it to the top with the filling, put pieces of Camambert cheese on top.
Bake for 30-45 min depending on the size at 200С (pre-heat the oven for a couple of minutes).
Cool down before cutting into pieces.
