More quiche: minced meat and zucchini…

Yes, I admit! I’m a quiche-fan!! :-) This time I made some mini-quiches, yummy!!!

What do you need?

- Zucchini (courgette)

- Minced meat

- Onion and garlic

- Puff pastry (bladerdeeg)

- Eggs

- Cream

- Pepper and salt for seasoning

- Butter

- Grated cheese if you like cheese

What do you do?

Melt butter in a pan, throw in the chopped onion and let it stew for a few minutes, add the chopped garlic and the minced meat and let it fry until the meat is done. Throw in the zucchini (diced) and let it simmer for a few minutes. Put everything in a strainer and let it cool down and drain well. Too much liquid is a quiche's worst enemy!

Put the puff pastry in a quiche or pie tin (or a few smaller tins), poke it well with a fork to keep it from puffing too much while baking.

Mix your cream and eggs together, season with salt and pepper (use one egg per 100 ml cream) and wisk well! Then you want to dump your zucchini-meat mixture in with your egg-cream mix. Stir well and then divide this in your mould.

If you like some cheese, you can put the grated cheese on top now.

Preheat your oven (about 180°C), put in the quiche and bake (about 40-45 minutes for a large tin, less for mini-quiches) until golden brown and the quiche is firm and yummy!

Enjoy!

Taking off the masks…


ww_banner_500x200


From march 12 until 18 the masks are coming off! Lilith and Ilse are hosting an event called ‘wijvenweek’ (no exact translation in English, but it’s like a ladiesweek with guts…)


Dozens of blogging ladies (and men) are going to post about certain themes that week… The big idea and goal is to put aside our glamorous reputation, those stunning pictures, our best work, good hair days, our clean and gorgeously decorated homes and reveal real life: the tons of badly taken pictures, projects that will never be finished or shown, the bad hair days, the dust on the floor and the piles of dirty dishes…


And yes, Zjizjipke will be one of them! So stay tuned for ‘wijvenweek’ and learn all about my (and others) hidden, darker side :-)


Love, Zjizjipke!
