Zucchini pie in the oven

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 50 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make zucchini pie? Prepare the following ingredients. For puff pastry, I use ready-made yeast-free dough; you can make the dough at home yourself. If the dough is frozen, it should be thawed first. Take the zucchini young to preserve the skin when slicing. If you don't have any, you can replace green onions with green onions, but you need to fry them until soft. C1 took the eggs. You can avoid sesame and poppy seeds.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash and dry the zucchini. Without removing the skin, cut into thin circles. This can be done using a knife, grater or food processor. I used a grater. Turn on the oven to preheat to 180 degrees.

3. STEP 3

   

   Wash the green onions, shake to remove excess moisture and chop. Peel the garlic and chop finely. Fry the chopped onion and garlic in a frying pan in a little oil until fragrant.

4. STEP 4

   

   Add the chopped zucchini to the pan with the onion and garlic, add salt and fry over high heat for several minutes, stirring constantly. Once the zucchini becomes translucent, remove the pan from the heat.

5. STEP 5

   

   Grate the selected cheese (I took Gouda) on a medium grater. Break the eggs into a separate bowl, add salt and mix.

6. STEP 6

   

   In a deep bowl, combine fried zucchini, grated cheese and eggs. Mix the ingredients thoroughly.

7. STEP 7

   

   Take a baking pan and line it with parchment. Place the puff pastry in the baking pan (roll it out if necessary) so that the edges hang slightly over the pan. Prick the dough along the bottom with a fork.

8. STEP 8

   

   Place the prepared filling in the mold on the dough and cover with the remaining edges in an overlapping manner, without covering the entire filling.

9. STEP 9

   

   Brush the top of the pie with beaten egg or water and sprinkle with poppy seeds and sesame seeds. Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 35 - 40 minutes.

10. STEP 10

    

    Remove the finished pie from the oven and let it cool. Serve it as an independent dish or a snack pie with drinks.

A spectacular and very satisfying dish for zucchini lovers! I decided to make this pie for dinner and was very satisfied and full, thanks to the author. True, in addition to the zucchini, I added tomatoes between two layers of zucchini, and generously sprinkled the edges of the dough with sesame seeds, because... crazy about the taste and crunch of sesame

I had a package of phyllo dough in my freezer, so I decided to experiment and use it instead of puff pastry. I placed two sheets of paper one on top of the other in the mold. I also added finely chopped sweet pepper to the zucchini. I sprinkled white sesame seeds on top of the pie, and replaced the poppy seeds with black sesame seeds. I was worried about how the phyllo dough would turn out, because it is very thin, but the pie turned out great! Crispy dough, juicy and aromatic vegetable filling - a super combination. My family ate the pie with a GREAT appetite! Thanks to the author for a delicious summer dish!
