The asparagus season is slowly coming to an end. High time to bring the healthy vegetables to the table again.
My recipe is not revolutionary, but very tasty.
Ingredients for 6-8 servings
- 250 g of plain flour
- 125 g of cold butter
- 1/2 kg of green asparagus
- 1 cup of cocktail tomatoes
- 1 tsp sugar
- a little freshly squeezed lemon juice
- freshly grated, spicy cheese (I take mountain cheese and plenty of it ;-) ...)
- 3 eggs
- 100 ml whipped cream
- 100 g creme fraiche
- Salt, pepper, spices according to your own taste
- fresh herbs (parsley, chives, a little chervil)
preparation
- 1 Spring or Quicheform (mine has 26 diameters) grease and flour.
- From the flour, the butter, the 1/2 teaspoon of salt and about 5 tablespoons of water knead a smooth (Mürb) dough and chill - who pushes him into the mold and with these in the fridge, makes it even easier!
- Wash asparagus and tomatoes, of course. Halve the tomatoes. Nevertheless, asparagus (if possible, peel the lower third) and blanch for 2 minutes (salt the cooking water well, sugar and add a dash of lemon) - cold quench.
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
- Rub the cheese and mix with the cream, creme fraiche, spices and herbs.
- Spread the asparagus and the tomatoes evenly over the dough and cover with the cream.
- For (depending on the stove) about 40 minutes from the oven.
Baked golden yellow, sprinkled with fresh chives and a fresh salad - does it take more?
Meal!
