Ingredients to make Ham and Cheese Quiche:

• 1 cup of butter (225 grams)

• 1 pinch of salt

• 1 tablespoon of water

• 1 egg

For the filling

• 200 grams of cheese

• 1 cup of chopped ham

• 4 eggs

How to make Ham and Cheese Quiche:

Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Mix the flour, butter, salt and egg to form a uniform dough. Finally, add the water and knead well to unify everything. Grease a mold with oil and spread the dough using your fingers until it is approximately 1 cm thick. If you prefer, you can help yourself with a roller.

Tip: At the bottom of the mold you can put crushed walnuts and Parmesan cheese to give it an even more special touch.

For the filling, process the eggs, cream, flour, salt and pepper in a blender. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and add the pieces of cheese and ham. Pour the mixture on top of the quiche dough and take the pan to the oven for about 35 to 40 minutes, or until golden brown.

If you prepared it in individual molds, you can eat the ham and cheese quiche once it has rested long enough. If not, you can cut it into pieces and serve with a little Parmesan cheese on top and it’s delicious!
