Ramp Quiche

Wonderfully hot Thai food. This is something I made after falling in love with a dish at a Thai restaurant. It tastes great when served with jasmine rice. Fish sauce is available at any Asian market or in the Asian department of the grocery store.

Additional Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 1 hr
Servings: 8
Yield: 1 10-inch quiche

Ingredients

  1. 1 cup all-purpose flour
  2. 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  3. 1 teaspoon baking powder
  4. ⅓ cup plain fat-free Greek yogurt, or more as needed
  5. 2 tablespoons 2% milk
  6. 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  7. 1 pinch salt
  8. 1 cup low-fat sour cream
  9. ½ cup heavy cream
  10. 2 large eggs
  11. 1 bunch ramps leaves, rinsed and dried
  12. 1 teaspoon salt
  13. freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 10-inch tart pan.
  2. Combine 1 cup plus 3 tablespoons flour, baking powder, Greek yogurt, milk, oil, and salt in a bowl with a wooden spoon until a ball forms. Add more milk or Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon at a time, if dough is dry and crumbly.
  3. Transfer dough to a lightly floured countertop and knead with your hands until smooth. Roll out to fit the tart pan. Line the bottom and sides of the tart pan with the dough. Trim any overhang or crimp it. Prick the bottom of the pie crust several times with a fork.
  4. Whisk sour cream, heavy cream, and eggs together in a bowl. Finely chop ramps. Stir chopped ramps into the filling and season with salt and pepper. Pour mixture into the crust.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is golden and pulls away from the pan and the filling is set, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let stand for 10 to 15 minutes before cutting.
  6. Use any oil with a neutral flavor like canola or sunflower oil.
  7. You can use only all-purpose flour, or for a healthier version, use half whole wheat or whole spelt flour and half all-purpose flour.
  8. If you want to garnish the quiche with ramps leaves, slice them lengthwise into even strips and place them on the quiche after approximately 15 minutes of baking.
