Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 200c or 400f (gas mark 6)
In a large bowl, add the beef mince and sea salt salt and mix together to combine.
Grease a quiche dish with some spray oil and add the meat mixture to the dish, flatten down well so it covers the bottom of the dish in a thin layer.
Place in the oven and bake for about 10 mins until lightly browned. The meat mixture will shrink on the base when cooked, but don’t worry, as you will be covering it with more layers. Dab up any excess juices that are released with some kitchen towel. Set aside.
Spray a frying pan with some spray oil, add the onions and fry until softened.
Mix the crushed tomatoes, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, paprika, tomato paste and Worcestershire sauce together in a bowl.
Add the cottage cheese, eggs and a 1/3 of the cheddar to a blender and blend until smooth.
Now you can start layering the next layers.
Using a spatula, spread the tomato mixture over the meat layer.
Add the softened onions
Then pour in the cottage cheese mixture
Sprinkle over the top with the remaining cheddar
Then place back in the oven and bake until mixture is set and cheese is melted and lightly golden on top (approx 30 mins)
Serve with a side salad and Enjoy!!
