Squash Quiche

It is time for a new food post :) 

I really wanted to make a Quiche with squash ‘cause I saw a recipe in a magazine.

So here you go…

Prep time: 30mins; cooking time: 30-40mins


What you will need:
125ml warm (but not hot) milk
20g yeast
250g flour
Salt
6 tablespoons oil

100g ham
2 leeks
500g squash 
pepper
250ml double cream
3 eggs
50g grated cheese

To do:
Add the flour into a large bowl and mould a well.
Add the yeast and pour a little bit of the milk on top.
Wait half an hour for the yeast to grow. You can put a lid onto the bowl and leave it at a warm spot.

Whilst you wait you can prepare the squash, leek and ham.
Cut the leek in little round pieces and the ham into little pieces too.
Cut the squash and remove the seeds. Cook the squash for around 10mins and make a mash out of it.

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.

After half an hour you can add the rest of the milk to the flour as well as salt and the oil.  
Knead till the dough is homogeneous.
Roll the dough till it is a little bit bigger than your quiche tin. Press the dough into the tin and cut the edges. 
Add the squash, Leek and ham into the tin.

Mix together the double cream and the eggs. Add some pepper.
Pour the mixture on top of the leek and squash.
Lastly add the cheese on top.

Cook around 30 to 40mins.



Enjoy
