Quiche with Caramelized Onions, Sun Dried Tomato and Ham

I have been baking the whole day today. Inspired by a recent snack I had and just wanted to have a go at making this quiche. I am never a fan of quiche but this one with caramelized onions, together with sun dried tomato just make it taste so yummy.

Recipe:

- Eggs

- Milk

- Shortcrust pastry (stored bought)

- Sun dried tomato

- pieces of ham

- Red onions and white onions

- Spring onions

- Tasty cheese

- chia seeds (optional)

- Salt and pepper

I didn't measure or keep track with the amount. Just mix and go. I made quite alot but i think you can start with just 3 eggs.

I caramelized a mix of red an white onions. Added salt, sugar, Lea and Perrins and balsamic vinegar at the end. This took around 45 minutes for the onions to be nicely caramelized.

I had alot of technical issues with the pastry. First i was running out of time and pastry was hard. It keeps breaking. Second, i couldn't get the right shape to fill in the 12 piece muffin tray. In the end i found the right cup to help me with the cutting.

Third, i wanted to blind bake my pastry so they will be crispy, i tried to do this and they all puff up. I then use rice to hold them down and they got way too time consuming to individually prepare. So i just fill up the crust with the filling without blind baking in the end.



These are all the ingredients used for this quiche. you can use almost anything in quiches.

I placed the caramelized onions at the bottom, springle with some ham and sun dried tomatoes, then the spring onions then the egg+milk mixture. I then added the tasty cheese on top and sprinkle some chia seeds over them. 

 This is how the first few batch without chia seeds

And these are the final few with chia seeds. You can't taste them but they are good stuff.
