Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium zucchini
- 150 grams feta cheese
- 3 large eggs
- 50 grams all-purpose flour
- 50 grams bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 medium onion
- 2 tablespoons parsley
- 1 tablespoon dill
- 50 grams grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Grease a medium-sized baking dish with olive oil or non-stick spray.
Wash the zucchini thoroughly, then grate them using a box grater. Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much water as possible. This step prevents the bake from becoming soggy.
Finely chop the onion, mince the garlic, and roughly chop the parsley and dill.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the squeezed zucchini, chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, dill, crumbled feta cheese, eggs, flour, and breadcrumbs. Stir until well combined.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, and mix again to evenly distribute the flavors.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top for a golden, crispy finish.
Drizzle the olive oil over the surface to enhance browning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy it warm or at room temperature!
