Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized zucchini
- 2 medium-sized carrot
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 medium-sized onion
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 4 large eggs
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried mixed herbs (e.g., parsley, oregano)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) and grease or line a rectangular baking dish (approximately 8x10 inches) with parchment paper.
Grate the zucchinis and carrots into a large bowl. Finely dice the red bell pepper and onion, then add them to the same bowl along with the frozen peas.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Sprinkle this mixture over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly.
In another mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and dried mixed herbs until well combined.
Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and stir until everything is well incorporated.
Fold the grated cheddar cheese into the mixture, reserving a small handful to sprinkle on top.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the reserved cheese on top for a golden crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the vegetable slice is set in the middle and golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing into squares or rectangles.
Serve warm or at room temperature. This vegetable slice pairs perfectly with a side salad or chutney.
