To prepare a delicious zucchini and onion pie, we start by making sure we have all the necessary ingredients at hand. First, we choose fresh zucchinis, preferably medium-sized, which are tastier and more tender. Slice the zucchinis into very thin slices using a sharp knife or a slicing tool to achieve uniform slices. This will help with the even cooking of the zucchinis.
While we are dealing with the zucchinis, we take a large onion and chop it finely. The onion can add a touch of sweetness and a pleasant aroma to the dish, so it is essential to chop it well. In a large bowl, we combine flour, grated parmesan, olive oil, salt, pepper, and eggs. We mix these ingredients using a whisk or a spatula until we obtain a smooth batter without lumps.
After the mixture is well combined, we add the zucchinis and the chopped onion. With the help of a spatula, we incorporate the vegetables into the batter, making sure that each slice of zucchini and each piece of onion is evenly coated. This step is essential to ensure that the pie will have a delicious taste and a pleasant texture.
The next step is to prepare the baking tray. Grease a baking tray with olive oil or butter to prevent the pie from sticking. Pour the homogenized mixture into the prepared tray, leveling the surface with a spatula. Make sure the batter is evenly distributed to allow for even baking.
Then, preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Once the oven is ready, place the tray inside and let the pie bake for about 40 minutes. It is important to check the pie from time to time to avoid burning. You will know it is ready when it turns golden and firm to the touch.
After the pie is baked, take it out of the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing. It can be served warm or at room temperature, making it perfect for a snack, appetizer, or even a main dish. Enjoy each slice and savor the delicious flavors of zucchini and onion combined with parmesan cheese!
