Course: Sides
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 25 minutes
Total time: 35 minutes
Serves: 4
Ingredients Needed:
- 3 courgette, cut into small round pieces
- 1 big onions, cut into thin long pieces
- ¼ tsp of turmeric powder
- ¾ tsp of fine rock salt, more can be added as per the taste
- ½ tsp of black pepper, finely ground
- ⅓ tsp of dry basil or oregano herb
- ¼ sp of flaked red chili (optional)
- 3 to 4 tbsp of extra virgin oil
- 120 g mozzarella cheese, grated
Method:
- Heat the oven to 220℃. I use the oven with a fan option and it works well. Take a large shallow baking dish and add courgette and onion pieces. Add turmeric, salt, pepper, herb, chilli powder ( if using) and oil and mix these nicely.The dish will come out good if all the pieces are nicely spread out before putting in the oven.
- Keep in the oven for 20 minutes. Before taking these out, it is important to check if courgette pieces have softened, turned brownish. Spread the cheese evenly and keep the dish back in the oven on high heat under the grill for 5 minutes or until the cheese has turned into a light brownish colour.
Menu suggestion:
- This dish can be served with fish, thin cut baked potatoes baked at the same time in the oven along with some salad.
