Preparation

What You Need

7 oz (200 g) green zucchini
5 oz (150 g) mushrooms
3 eggs
1 oz (30 g) flour
2 1/4 cups (550 ml) milk, chopped
1 clove garlic
Chopped basil
1/2 oz (15 g) butter
5 oz (150 g) sharp Canadian Cheddar
Basil leaves
Salt
Freshly ground pepper

Instructions

Mix eggs and flour, then add milk to make a smooth paste. Fold in chopped garlic and basil. Add salt and pepper.

Slice zucchini and mushrooms thinly. Blanch zucchini in boiling water for 30 seconds. Drain. In a frying pan, stir-fry mushrooms quickly in butter. Place zucchini and mushrooms in a gratin dish. Add salt and pepper.

Pour egg mixture over zucchini and mushrooms. Top with sliced sharp Canadian Cheddar. Place a few basil leaves on top and bake at 400 °F (200 °C) for 30 to 35 minutes. The cake will rise slightly and the cheese will form a golden crust. Serve warm.
