Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

1
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).
Aproximativ 10 min.
2
Unroll the pie crust and gently press it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any excess crust and crimp the edges decoratively.
Aproximativ 3 min.
3
Line the pie crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the weights and parchment and bake for another 5 minutes, until lightly golden.
Aproximativ 20 min.
Nota bucătarului: This step, called blind baking, prevents a soggy bottom crust.
4
While the crust bakes, melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium-low heat.
Aproximativ 1 min.
5
Add the yellow onion to the skillet and cook slowly for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until deeply caramelized and tender.
Aproximativ 15 min.
Nota bucătarului: Cooking onions slowly brings out their natural sweetness.
6
Remove the pie crust from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 175°C (350°F).
7
Sprinkle half of the gruyere cheese evenly over the bottom of the pre-baked pie crust.
Aproximativ 1 min.
8
Distribute the caramelized onion over the cheese, then top with the remaining gruyere cheese.
Aproximativ 1 min.
9
In a large bowl, whisk together the large eggs, heavy cream, milk, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Aproximativ 2 min.
10
Carefully pour the egg mixture over the cheese and onions in the pie crust.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Pour slowly to avoid disturbing the fillings.
11
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the center is just set and the top is golden brown.
Aproximativ 35 min.
Nota bucătarului: A knife inserted near the center should come out clean.
12
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it rest on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Aproximativ 15 min.
Nota bucătarului: Resting allows the custard to set completely, preventing it from collapsing when cut.
13
Garnish with fresh chives before serving.
