How to Make Mushroom Spinach And Ham Tarts Quiches

  1. **Make the pastry:** Combine flour, cubed butter, and salt in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
  2. Add ice-cold water and pulse until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
  3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, divide into 4 equal portions, and shape each into a disc. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to 24 hours).
  4. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Lightly grease four 6.5-inch tart pans with removable bottoms.
  5. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each dough disc to a 7-inch circle. Gently transfer to prepared tart pans, trimming and pressing the dough into the bottom and up the sides.
  6. Line the pastry shells with foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 15 minutes.
  7. Remove the weights and foil and bake for a further 8 minutes, or until the crusts are pale golden.
  8. **Prepare the filling:** While the pastry is baking, heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and onion and sauté for 3 minutes, until softened.
  9. Add spinach and sauté for 1 minute, until wilted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  10. Divide the mushroom and spinach mixture evenly among the four baked tart shells.
  11. Top each tart with an equal amount of ham and cheese.
  12. In a medium bowl, whisk together cream, eggs, salt, and pepper.
  13. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the filling in each tart.
  14. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the custard is set and lightly golden.
  15. Let cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pans. Serve warm and enjoy!
