Ingredients
- 4 medium zucchini
- 150 grams feta cheese
- 3 large eggs
- 50 grams all-purpose flour
- 50 grams bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 medium onion
- 2 tablespoons parsley
- 1 tablespoon dill
- 50 grams grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Grease a medium-sized baking dish with olive oil or non-stick spray.
Step 2
Wash the zucchini thoroughly, then grate them using a box grater. Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much water as possible. This step prevents the bake from becoming soggy.
Step 3
Finely chop the onion, mince the garlic, and roughly chop the parsley and dill.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the squeezed zucchini, chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, dill, crumbled feta cheese, eggs, flour, and breadcrumbs. Stir until well combined.
Step 5
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, and mix again to evenly distribute the flavors.
Step 6
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Step 7
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top for a golden, crispy finish.
Step 8
Drizzle the olive oil over the surface to enhance browning.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
Step 10
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy it warm or at room temperature!
