A slice of this pie, either hot or cold, makes a nice lunch with a green salad.
Makes 8 servings (9-inch pie pan)
Swiss cheese press-in crust
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 6 tablespoons chilled butter, sliced ¼-inch thick
- ½ cup shredded aged Swiss cheese
- ¼ cup sour cream
Mushroom filling
- 1 tablespoon butter or vegetable oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 pound (450 gr) fresh brown or white mushrooms, cleaned
- 1½ cup shredded aged Swiss or Emmentaler cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ cup light cream or milk
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- Preheat the oven to 425F (220C).
- For the crust, measure the flour into a large bowl ; cut in the butter until the mixture ressembles coarse crumbs.
- Blend in the cheese and sour cream until the mixture ressembles moist crumbs.
- Press the crust into a 9-inch glass or porcelaine quiche pan or pie pan ; bake it for 10 minutes or until lightly browned.
- For the filling, heat the butter in a heavy skillet ; add the garlic and stir over low heat for 2 minutes.
- Add 8 mushroom caps to the pan and cook just until glazed, 1 to 2 minutes ; remove them and reserve.
- Slice the remaining mushrooms with stems and add to the pan ; cook and stir until the mushrooms are browned and any released liquid has evaporated.
- Sprinkle half the cheese over baked crust ; top the cheese with the mushrooms, then the remaining cheese.
- Mix the salt, cream, and eggs, and pour into the pan, covering the ingredients evenly.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until a knife inserted just off center comes out clean.
- About 5 minutes before removing the pie from the oven, place the reserved mushroom caps on top of the pie, spacing them evenly around the edge.
- Serve the pie hot or at room temperature.
- The pie can be baked a day ahead, refrigerated, and warmed in a 300F (150C) oven for 10 minutes before serving.
BON APPÉTIT
