Method

  • Preheat oven to 180ºC
  • Cut the bell pepper in 1/8s and drizzle with a little oil. Roast skin side down for about 30 mins or until soft. Immediately take out of the oven and place in a plastic food bag or if you don’t have one wrap in cling film to prevent air escaping. Leave aside until later.
  • In a bowl sieve your flour, then add the butter and using your fingers rub into the flour until it resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add your water (1 tablespoon at a time) and using your hands mix into the flour and butter until it resembles a dough that sticks together.
  • Roll on a floured surface until thin and then use a small circular cookie cutter to shape out 24 mini circles.
  • Place these into your greased mini muffin baking tin and refrigerate until you are ready to add your filling.
  • Meanwhile, head the remaining olive oil in a frying pan and slowly sauté the onions until soft but not brown.
  • Add the finely chopped spinach to the pan and stir for about 2 minutes until the spinach is wilted down. Remove from the heat.
  • Then open your bag with the peppers, peel off the skins and finely chop the flesh into tiny pieces and add to your onion and spinach mixture.
  • Remove your pastry from the fridge and place roughly 1 teaspoon of the vegetable mixture into each little pastry. There should be enough for 24.
  • Whisk the 3 eggs well and spoon 2 teaspoons of egg into your little quiches.
  • Finally, add a little piece of goats cheese (approx 1/2 a teaspoon) to the top of each one and place in the oven for about 25 minutes or until the egg has set and the pastry is cooked.
  • Serve with some slices of avocado for a delicious dinner
