Asian Quiche



Well I have been busy the past couple days creating new dishes.  It has been a lot of fun playing with food and see how it turns out.

I woke up Saturday morning to a very empty fridge.  It looked bad since we have been trying to just purchase groceries for up to just a week at a time so we do not waste food...even the freezer looked deserted.  With very minimum for breakfast that morning, I had to get really creative.  Here is what I had to work with: black dried fungus in the freezer, a puff pastry sheet, 3 eggs, milk, one potato, onion, garlic, and frozen broccoli.

I was kind of in an Asian mood that morning thinking about a simple dish my Mom use to make when I was growing up.  It was just basically and omelet with black dried fungus and ground pork with fish sauce mixed in with the egg.  So I took that idea and came up with an Asian Quiche (basically whatever I had in the fridge went in kind of Quiche).

So I started by dicing up the onion, potato and garlic and chopping up the broccoli and black fungus and mixing all that together.  I whipped up the 3 eggs with some milk and stirred in some fish sauce, oyster sauce, and soy sauce and finished it with five spice powder.  Mixed in my veggie mix into the egg mixture and poured into my dish lined with the puff pastry.

Several minutes later...I had my Asian Quiche!  It turned out delicious especially with the puff pastry.  This is one of my better quiches that I have made.
