Tamale Potato Quiche

 

1/2 pound small red potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/8 inch thick

1 cup white cornmeal

1 teaspoon ground cumin

3/4 teaspoon salt, divided

2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided

4 eggs, divided

1/3 cup water

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 cup cottage cheese

2 tablespoons milk

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1 4 oz. can chopped green chiles, drained

1 medium red bell pepper, seeded and cut into thin strips

sour cream and fresh cilantro

 

Place potatoes in small saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil over high

heat. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer 5 minutes or until potatoes are

crisp-tender. Drain. Set aside.

Combine cornmeal, cumin, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1 cup Cheddar cheese in medium

bowl; toss to mix. Beat 1 egg in small bowl; beat in water and oil until

blended. Stir into cornmeal mixture just until cornmeal is moistened.

Pat mixture evenly on bottom and up side of greased 9-inch glass pie plate.

Place remaining 3 eggs, cottage cheese, milk, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and

black pepper in blender; process until smooth.

Arrange half of potatoes in layer in crust. Sprinkle with green chiles and 1/2

cup Cheddar cheese. Top with remaining potatoes and 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese.

Arrange bell pepper strips on top. Carefully pour egg mixture over layers,

allowing mixture to seep through layers.

Cover completely with plastic wrap, folding ends under. Place round metal

cooling rack inside wok; fill wok with 1 1/2 inches water. (Water should not

touch rack.) Place pie plate on rack. Bring water to a boil over high heat;

reduce heat to low. Cover wok; steam 35 to 40 minutes or until egg mixture is

set. (Replenish water, if necessary.)

Cool 10 minutes. Cut into wedges. Garnish with sour cream and cilantro.

Makes 6 servings.

dumb question, what are divided eggs? i only see one used in the

recipie (maybe i over looked the other three) my assumption is it

means, don't dump them in a bowl together, bc you won't add them at

the same time..

thanks for the cooking advice...i've been looking for the " right "

quiche to try to make...it'll be a first

There are 4 eggs in the recipe divided means u use 1 differently in the recipe,

1 for the crust and 3 for the inside.

I hope that helps.
