FeliceZucchini Flan with Fresh Basil
I woke up this morning and saw a recipe for "Zucchini Flan" in the NY Times Food section. It was perfect because I had a whole bag of little zucchinis in my fridge that I needed to use up! It turned out nice so I figured I'd write it down :)
Ingredient
Food ration :
4 servingsCooking time :
60 mins
600 g
zucchini, sliced thin
1 Tbsp
cooking oil
4
eggs
500 ml
milk
1/2 tsp
sea salt
1/4-1/2 tsp
nutmeg to taste
to taste
pepper
1 handful
fresh basil, torn into small pieces
3 sprigs
fresh dill or thyme
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Preheat oven to 190°C/375°F.
* Step 2
Grill zucchini slices in a grill pan or saute in a frying pan until slightly soft. If needed you can pour in a little water or broth after a few minutes to help "steam" them. Sprinkle with salt.
* Step 3
Whisk together eggs and milk. Then mix in the salt, nutmeg, pepper, fresh basil leaves and dill/thyme.
* Step 4
Lightly grease a baking dish with oil and layout the zucchini and onion.
* Step 5
Distribute the cheese, if using, over the zucchini (I used cream cheese because that's all I had...)
* Step 6
Pour over the egg mixture
* Step 7
Bake at 190°C/375°F for 25-30 minutes. The center will still be a little jiggly when done. Enjoy warm :)
