Pumpkin, Spinach and Goat Cheese Quiche

  • 30 oz (800 g) pumpkin, cut into large pieces
  • 1–2 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons of sugar
  • 2 cups (450g) fresh spinach
  • Salt & pepper
  • 2 large eggs
  • 7 oz (200g) goat cheese
  • 1/2 cup (65g) nuts
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  1. Preheat oven 200c. Cook the chopped pumpkin in a large volume of water until soft and tender. Sieve, and puree with a fork.
  2. In a medium frying pan, heat olive oil and once hot, melt the onions. When they start to golden, add sugar and caramelize them, about 5-10 minutes.
  3. In another frying pan, saute the spinach with olive oil until they reduce by half. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
  4. Mix the eggs with the goat cheese. Add the walnuts, mashed pumpkins, onions and spinach. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg.
  5. Pour the mixture onto the crust, and bake for about 40 minutes, or until cooked through.
