Cheese and Chilli Quiche

Ingredients for Cheese and Chilli Quiche

• pastry dough

• 1 diente de ajo grande

• 3/4 cucharaditas de sal

• 450g poblano chillies (about 4 large), roasted and peeled

• 6 huevos grandes

• 240ml de leche entera

• 120ml Mexican crema or double cream

• 2 tablespoons finely grated white onion (using small teardrop holes of a box grater)

• 1/2 cucharaditas de pimienta negra

• 230g Monterey Jack cheese, coarsely grated (600 to 725ml )

• a 9-inch (2-inch deep) round fluted tart pan with removable bottom

• pie weights or raw rice

• pie weights or raw rice

Coloca la rejilla del horno en la posición media y precalienta el horno a 191°C.

Roll out dough into a 13-inch round on a lightly floured surface with a floured rolling pin. Fit dough into tart pan, without stretching, letting excess dough hang over edge. Fold overhang inward and press against side of pan to reinforce edge. Prick bottom all over with a fork. Chill until firm, about 30 minutes.

Line shell with foil or parchment paper and fill with pie weights. Bake until pastry is set and pale golden along rim, 20 to 25 minutes.

Carefully remove foil and weights and bake shell until deep golden all over, 15 to 20 minutes more. Put tart pan in a shallow baking pan. Leave oven on.

Mince garlic and mash to a paste with salt using side of a large knife.

Discard seeds, ribs, and stems from chillies, then pat dry if necessary and cut into 1/3-inch-wide strips.

Whisk together eggs, milk, crema, onion, garlic paste, and pepper in a large bowl until just combined, then pour into baked tart shell.

Sprinkle cheese and chillies over custard (chillies will sink slightly) and bake until custard is just set, 50 to 60 minutes. (Centre will jiggle slightly; filling will continue to set as it cools.)

Transfer quiche in pan to a rack to cool at least 20 minutes before serving.

To remove side of tart pan, centre a large can under pan and let side of pan drop. Serve warm or at room temperature.
