Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium zucchinis, grated
  • Salt, to taste
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium carrot, grated
  • 1 red pepper, diced
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 3 eggs
  • 300 ml (1¼ cups) milk
  • 240 g (2 cups) flour
  • 150 g (5.3 oz) mozzarella cheese, grated

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 180°C (350°F) to preheat.
  2. Prepare the vegetables: Grate the zucchini and carrot. Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out the excess moisture. Finely chop the onion and red pepper, and set them aside.
  3. Cook the vegetables: In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, until softened. Then, add the grated carrot and diced red pepper. Cook for another 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Mix the batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, cooked vegetables, fresh parsley, eggs, milk, flour, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
  5. Add cheese: Fold in the grated mozzarella cheese into the mixture.
  6. Bake: Pour the vegetable mixture into a greased baking dish and spread evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown on top and cooked through.
  7. Serve: Allow the bake to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can substitute mozzarella with any cheese of your choice, such as cheddar or a dairy-free option for a vegan version.
  • Feel free to experiment with other vegetables like spinach, mushrooms, or eggplant for a different flavor profile.
  • Make sure to squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the zucchini to avoid a soggy bake.
  • This recipe can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat before serving.
