step by step

Method

  1. Boil the potatoes

    • Cut the potatoes in half and place them in a pot of salted boiling water.
    • Boil until fork tender, then drain and let them cool slightly.
    • Peel the skins off; they should slide off easily.
    Step 1
  2. Form the potato crust

    • Spray the springform pan with avocado oil.
    • Press the boiled potatoes into the bottom and up the sides of the pan to form a crust, using a cup to press and shape it evenly.
    • Spray the crust with a little more avocado oil and sprinkle salt over the base and sides.
    Step 2
  3. Pre-bake the crust

    • Bake at 425°F until lightly golden and starting to crisp.
    Step 3
  4. Make the filling

    • In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, ricotta, cheddar, diced ham, chopped spinach, salt and pepper.
    • Mix well, then pour into the pre-baked potato crust.
    • Top with extra shredded cheese.
    Step 4
  5. Bake the quiche

    Step 5
  6. Cool and finish

    • Let the quiche cool slightly before removing it from the springform pan.
    • Finish with fresh chives and flaky salt.
