Ingredients list for the zucchini casserole
- Zucchini (4 or 5, depending on size)
- 3 eggs
- 1 1/4 cup (30cl) of heavy cream
- Goat cheese
- 4 sprigs of mint
- Salt and pepper
Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 330°F (165°C). Wash and dry the zucchini. Trim the ends and slice the zucchini very finely using a mandolin slicer or a vegetable peeler.
2. Mix the eggs, cream, salt, and pepper together.
3. Place the zucchini slices, slightly overlapping, in a round gratin dish. Make only one layer of vegetables. Sprinkle with crumbled goat cheese and chopped mint.
4. Pour the egg mixture and bake for 30-40 minutes in the preheated oven.
