I do want to make a quiche, but it does not sound the greatest indeed.
I think I will give it a go!

PollyThePixie · 18/04/2023 17:52

I’m going to give it a go and will use frozen board beans instead of fresh due to where I live and them not being available. Fresh tarragon might be difficult to get as well but fingers crossed.

Will also do Coronation chicken on the day because we like it and it’s symbolic of the late Queens coronation.

From a quick glance it needs twice the eggs and 3 x the cheese. I make a lot of quiches but happily cheat and buy ready made pastry, ready grated cheddar and I like a bit of goats cheese too which would set this off perfectly, for colour a few slices of red pepper (though not in season in the U.K. whereas spinach and early B-road beans are)

Rosula · 18/04/2023 17:56

I like broad beans, I may give it a go.

AlltheFs · 18/04/2023 18:01

No. There’s not much I won’t eat but cooked spinach is one of them 🤮

A quiche needs bacon and preferably mushrooms. I may buy a fancy one from our artisan bakers and stick a union flag on it instead. Job done.

You can keep your manky spinach Charles!

A recipe designed use lots of eggs when there is a shortage of eggs. Perfect.

Pestispeeved · 18/04/2023 18:10

If you don't like lard use Trex.
Basically it is a spinach pie, only two eggs and a fair bit of liquid will give something creamy that most people are not used to in a quiche.

Favouritefruits · 18/04/2023 18:15

I think it looks revolting, I’m not a pastry fan though so maybe I’m bias.

greenspaces4peace · 18/04/2023 18:20

@OhYouBadBadKitten 2 eggs for 6 servings and barely a whiff of cheese at 100gms.
certainly not a lot of eggs.

That serves me right for not reading the recipe and assuming! Grin My quiches always use lots of eggs.

I think I’ll stick with coronation chicken, maybe mixed with coleslaw and thrown in a wrap.

Me too.
I hate spinach. If it has to be a quiche then Quiche Lorraine or cheese, onion and tomato are good.

Not a chance. Loathe Broad beans! Not overly fond of spinach either, there are so many lovely things to put in a quiche, or not.

Pestispeeved · 18/04/2023 18:29

@OhYouBadBadKitten I think this one will have more of the texture of a M&S Carbonara Pasta Bake.

I'm up for making it.

I still think about the one my French friend made years ago. It was prawn and broccoli and the nicest quiche I’d ever eaten. It even had lashings of cream in it. She was the most marvelous cook. Not that her Australian husband appreciated it. - one of the reasons for him wanting a divorce was her seemingly trying to feed him to death by giving him a food related heart attack.

iaapap · 18/04/2023 18:58

I’d eat it if someone made it for me, but otherwise I’d be making quiche filled with bacon, tomato, peppers and cheese.

Spinach can get stringy and annoying if you do it wrong.

Roadtrips · 18/04/2023 19:27

He could have had a goats cheese - white quiche to match the flag

Why did he want a green quiche?

Is it because his post boxes will be green not red?

The green man on his invitation?

The environment?

I think it sounds nice - will probably give it a go, with coronation chicken too.

Chewbecca · 18/04/2023 19:39

I like the sound of it and will be making in the next couple of weeks.
I’ll definitely use frozen broad beans, double podded but probably fresh spinach.

Vitriolinsanity · 18/04/2023 19:55

I'm going to sauté the bb in garlic first.

You'd only put frozen in a quiche surely? Super cheap.

Hedonism · 18/04/2023 20:00

It's not inspiring me.

Vitriolinsanity · 18/04/2023 20:33

The real issue is the BB + spinach is a recipe for 💨

Roadtrips · 19/04/2023 11:18

This is being baked on This morning now.

The chef has made the Palace recipie and her own version.

I might for the amusement, yes. I have broad beans in the freezer from last summer that need using up and kale (not spinach) in the garden, and I am swimming in eggs. It's quite an odd and non-seasonal choice though.

tatteddear · 19/04/2023 11:24

Really not. It's just so uninspiring. But that said I'm a republican at heart so maybe anything would be to me. It's not a patch on coronation chicken though is it?

dudsville · 19/04/2023 11:34

That's quite some jazzy, finger snapping, toe tapping music they've got there.

The quiche looks nice, but do we think he'll be celebrating his display of wealth and power with a quiche?

I do like broad beans but they have to be fresh off the vine, they're the most pernickity thing, they start to lose their crisp juicyness within a few minutes or hours. I recently tried frozen ones presuming they'd have been frozen quickly and therefore might be nice. They were as far from nice as a thing could be.
