Broccoli Quiche with Palmito
Ingredients:

Dough:

  • 1 large bunch of broccoli
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups oats (flakes, flour, or buckwheat)
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • Cheese for topping (as desired)

Stuffing:

  • 1 glass of palm hearts (500g), chopped
  • Onion, to taste
  • Seasoning (salt, pepper, etc.) to taste
  • Additional vegetables (optional), chopped

Preparation:

  1. Prepare the Palmito:
    • In a skillet, sauté the chopped palm hearts with onions and your chosen seasonings. Add any additional vegetables if desired. Cook for about 8 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. Set aside.
  2. Prepare the Broccoli:
    • Boil the broccoli in water for about 10 minutes, or until tender. Drain and let it cool slightly.
  3. Prepare the Dough:
    • In a blender, combine the cooked broccoli, eggs, oats, and olive oil. Blend until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add a bit of milk to achieve a smoother consistency.
  4. Combine and Fill:
    • Manually mix the palmito stuffing into the broccoli dough. Spread the mixture evenly in a baking dish.
  5. Add Cheese and Bake:
    • Sprinkle cheese over the top of the mixture. Bake in a preheated oven at 230°C (450°F) for about 30 minutes, or until the top is golden and the quiche is set.
  6. Serve:
    • Allow the quiche to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
