Greg and Lucy Malouf
Ingredients
100 ml olive oil
1 onion, finely diced
1 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
1 tsp dried mint
4 white zucchini (about 350gm), coarsely grated (see note)
6 eggs
2 tbsp self-raising flour
Grated rind of 1 lemon
½ tsp sea salt
½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
200 gm provolone or any other melting cheese, grated
To serve: radish microcress (optional)
To serve: thick natural yoghurt (optional)
Preparation method
Serves 6
Prep time 25 mins, cook 45-50 mins
Preheat the oven to 180C. Heat half the oil in a frying pan over a low heat and fry the onion until it softens (10-12 minutes). Stir in the nutmeg and mint and fry for another minute. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
Pour the remaining oil into a 24cm-diameter non-stick ovenproof frying pan and heat in the oven for 5-10 minutes. Squeeze the grated zucchini firmly to remove as much moisture as possible. Whisk the eggs until frothy. Whisk in the flour, lemon rind, salt and pepper, followed by the onion mixture, zucchini and cheese. The mixture will be quite sloppy. Pour the mixture into the hot oil. Cover the pan with a lid or foil and bake in the oven for 15 minutes or until nearly set. Remove the lid and cook for a further 15 minutes to brown the surface.
Cut into wedges and serve hot from the pan with a sprinkling of radish microcress (if using) and thick yoghurt. Alternatively, drain on paper towels and cut into wedges when cold to serve with pickles or relish.
