Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups cooked brown rice
1/2 cup cooked wild rice
1 large egg (separated)
4 tablespoon parmegiano reggiano cheese (finely grated)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3 large garlic cloves (peeled, thinly sliced; about 1 1/2 T.)
3/4 pounds fresh spinach leaves (1 medium- large bunch, cleaned and dried )
1 pinch salt and freshly cracked black pepper
5 large eggs (divided, I use pasture raised)
1 1/2 cups milk (full fat)
1/4 cup fresh dill (cleaned, dried and coarsely chopped)
1 cup feta cheese (large crumbles; divided)
1/2 medium red onion (peeled, cut into 1/4" rings)
3/4 cups colorful cherry tomatoes (sliced in half )

Steps:

  • Warm the brown rice, add 1 egg white (save the yolk for the filling) and 1 cup warm rice to a small food processor. Pulse to combine. Continue to run until the mixture is creamy and the rice is pureed, but a little chunky.Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Add this mixture to a medium sized bowl; add the remaining 1 cup brown rice, wild rice, parmesan cheese and a pinch of salt.
  • Brush deep-dish pie pan well with neutral oil. I have used a 10″ tart pan with 2″ high sides. Add the rice mixture.Press down using a piece of plastic wrap - this will allow you to press in an even layer.Build an edge to 1″. Place on a rimmed baking pan. Bake for 15 minutes until firm and lightly colored. Set aside to cool slightly. Raise heat of oven to 375 degrees.
  • Slice the spinach into 1/2″ ribbons.To a large saute pan, add 1 T. olive oil and sliced garlic. Cook over low heat stirring for 2 minutes until the garlic had just started to color. Add the spinach, and a pinch of salt & pepper, stir to coat. Cook, stirring until limped and cooked through - just 2 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • In a medium sized bowl, whisk the 4 eggs and the remaining egg yolk. Add the milk, and whisk well. Add dill, mix to combine.
  • Add 3/4 cup of Feta cheese to the bottom of the slightly cooled crust. Add the Spinach-Garlic mixture evenly. Pour in the Egg and Milk Custard. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Feta. Add Red Onion Rings all over top. Add cut Tomatoes all over top. Place the quiche on a rimmed baking pan.
  • Bake in a 375 degree oven until puffed and firm in the center, about 45 minutes.Add a little extra chopped dill on top if desired. The quiche reheats well, and can be frozen and reheated.

WILD RICE QUICHE



Wild Rice Quiche image

Wild rice is very abundant in our state, so that's why I think this dish is appropriate for a regional recipe contest. This is an excellent brunch item that I usually serve with fresh muffins and fruit. When you add a steaming cup of Norwegian egg coffee, you have a super Minnesota meal.
