Bolognese quiche

Bolognese, a tomato meat sauce and often used as a topping on your spaghetti. But did you know you can make a delicious quiche with it?

An Italian buffet without bolognese sauce? Of course it works, but in this buffet I want to use it in a dish. And today I used the sauce a bit different into a delicious quiche. And did I make it up all by myself? A bit, but it’s adapted from an idea form a recipe on AH.nl (called quiche bolognese) and I thought it was a great idea, except …. in this dish a sack with instant bolognese mix for spaghetti was used for the quiche. I don’t like to use sacks. So I tought could be better! And really that doens’t take a lot of effort and it takes you 20 minutes of extra time. In that time you get a rich tomato sauce with a great slight sweet taste… And after tasting it you won’t buy the sack anymore!

Some

tips:

• Of course you can use for fresh tomatoes (500 grams) for this dish for the sauce. But, as with many fruits and vegetables, tomatoes are great when in season but in the other seasons they are watery and have less flavor. To ensure a good quality you can use canned tomatoes. So you get a consistent quality of your sauce.
• Before you add the tomato paste to the sauce, fry it briefly in a skillet. Why? Smell raw tomatopaste. It smells sour and it tastes the same way too. When you cook it for 2 minutes in a skillet the smell will change and the taste becomes sweet. And that is a great addition in this sauce.
• In this sauce you use a little bit of sugar. Tomatoes have a slightly sweet undertone. By adding a little sugar, the sweet taste will get stronger. And that is very tasty. (If you ever cook fresh carrots, the carrots becomes so much sweeter by adding a pinch of sugar).
• Do not use puff pastry for this recipe, but savory pie dough. The buttery puff of fits less well in this recipe. Also it gots a lot of extra calories that aren’t really necessary.

Preparation:

Up to 2 weeks ahead:

• Make the quiches and bake them for 15 minutes. Let the quiches cool to room temperature and put them in a freezer bag (place a sheet of baking paper between the quiches). Freeze the quiches.

Day  when serving buffet:

• Bake the quiche for 20-25 minutes in the oven and serve immediately. The quiches do not have to be pre-thawed

 

It’s a good taste!
