Cheesy Kale and Mushroom Strata

This cheesy kale and mushroom strata is a sophisticated vegetarian bake that sits somewhere between a savoury bread pudding and a crustless quiche. Using earthy crimini mushrooms, sweet sautéed leeks, and iron-rich curly kale, this dish offers a wonderful depth of flavour. The combination of sourdough bread and a rich custard made with Gruyère and Parmesan ensures every bite is satisfyingly crisp on top and beautifully tender beneath.

Ideal for a weekend brunch or a stress-free supper, this wholesome recipe is a fantastic way to use up slightly stale bread. It is a brilliant make-ahead option as the flavours develop further if left to sit, and leftovers can be kept in the fridge for several days. Serve it alongside a fresh green salad for a balanced and comforting homemade meal that the whole family will enjoy.

Ingredients for Cheesy Kale and Mushroom Strata

  • 375g sourdough or country-style bread, cut into 1 1/2" pieces (about 1675ml )

  • 2 cucharadas de aceite de oliva virgen extra

  • 230g crimini mushrooms, sliced 1/4" thick

  • 2 dientes de ajo, finamente cortados

  • 1 cucharadita de sal kosher, más al gusto

  • 1/2 cucharadita de pimienta negra recién molida, más al gusto

  • 2 cucharadas de mantequilla sin sal, divididas

  • 3 leeks, white and pale green parts only, halved lengthwise, sliced crosswise 1/4" thick

  • 1 bunch curly kale, ribs and stems removed, leaves torn into 2" pieces

  • 8 huevos grandes

  • 2 tablespoons whole grain Dijon mustard

  • 600 ml de leche entera

  • 160g Gruyère or Comté cheese, coarsely grated, divided

  • 60g Parmesan, finely grated, divided

Preheat oven to 177°C. Toast bread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet until beginning to dry out but not yet browned, 8–10 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a 12" cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Arrange mushrooms in a single layer and cook, undisturbed, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add garlic, season generously with salt and pepper, and cook, tossing and reducing heat if needed, until mushrooms are golden brown all over, about 2 minutes. Push to one side and melt 1 tablespoon butter in centre of skillet. Add leeks and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often and mixing into mushrooms, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add kale by the handful, tossing to wilt slightly after each addition, and cook, tossing often, until all of the kale is mostly wilted, about 4 minutes. Transfer kale mixture to a medium bowl. Let skillet cool slightly, then wipe out and coat with remaining 1 tablespoon butter.

Whisk eggs, mustard, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoons pepper in a large bowl until no streaks remain, then whisk in milk. Arrange half of bread in skillet. Cover with half of kale mixture, then top with half of Gruyère and half of Parmesan. Top with remaining bread and kale mixture; pour egg mixture over. Press down on strata with a spatula to help bread absorb egg mixture. Scatter remaining Gruyère and Parmesan over.

Bake strata until golden brown and no liquid seeps out when a knife is inserted into the centre, 35–40 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

Strata can be baked 3 days ahead. Let cool completely; cover and chill.
