Ingredients

• 300 grams shrimp (peeled, deveined, and cooked)
• 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 120 grams cheddar cheese (shredded)
• 120 grams all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 3 large eggs
• 360 milliliters whole milk
• 2 tablespoons parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter or cooking spray and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 3

Scatter the cooked shrimp evenly over the bottom of the greased pie dish. Sprinkle the sautéed onions evenly over the shrimp, followed by the shredded cheddar cheese.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 5

In another bowl, beat the eggs and milk together until well combined. Gradually pour the egg mixture into the dry ingredients, whisking until smooth and lump-free.

Step 6

Carefully pour the batter over the shrimp, onion, and cheese layers in the pie dish, ensuring even distribution.

Step 7

Place the pie dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let the pie cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Step 9

Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve warm. Enjoy!
