Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams shrimp (peeled, deveined, and cooked)
- 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 120 grams cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 120 grams all-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 3 large eggs
- 360 milliliters whole milk
- 2 tablespoons parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter or cooking spray and set aside.
In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Scatter the cooked shrimp evenly over the bottom of the greased pie dish. Sprinkle the sautéed onions evenly over the shrimp, followed by the shredded cheddar cheese.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
In another bowl, beat the eggs and milk together until well combined. Gradually pour the egg mixture into the dry ingredients, whisking until smooth and lump-free.
Carefully pour the batter over the shrimp, onion, and cheese layers in the pie dish, ensuring even distribution.
Place the pie dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the pie cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve warm. Enjoy!
