CHERRY TOMATO CLAFOUTI



Cherry Tomato Clafouti image

A wonderful savory side dish. Paired with a salad, makes a great light summertime dinner. Use the cottage cheese or mild goat cheese for a fairly mild cheese flavour or for a bolder cheese taste, try the feta. Cooking/Prep Time does not include "stand time" of 15 minutes.

MIXED COURGETTE AND CHERRY TOMATO CLAFOUTI WITH CHEESE



Mixed Courgette and Cherry Tomato Clafouti With Cheese image

I often make sweet clafouti, especially with cherries; but recently, I ate a savoury one in a restaurant - it was delicious! Much lighter than a gratin and a wonderful, colourful recipe idea for a vegetable accompaniment OR a light lunch or starter. This is the version I invented using yellow & green courgettes with little cherry tomatoes. I used grated parmesan cheese and it worked perfectly! I made this in a 30cm/12" long oval earthenware French Tian; any attractive oven to table baking dish would be suitable.

Time 1h10m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 yellow courgette, sliced
1 green courgette, sliced
100 g cherry tomatoes, halved
2 garlic cloves, crushed
25 g butter (optional)
2 eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons creme fraiche or 3 tablespoons sour cream
100 ml 1% low-fat milk
25 g self raising flour
50 -75 g grated parmesan cheese
salt
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 200°C or 400°F.
  • Wash and wipe the courgettes - cut into medium sized slices, about half a centimeter or 1/4".
  • Cut the cherry tomatoes into half - if they are very small, leave them whole.
  • Cut up the butter into small pieces and scatter over the base of the baking dish.(if you are watching your fat content - you can leave the butter out.).
  • Add the crushed garlic; scatter over the top of the butter.
  • Arrange the courgettes and cherry tomatoes in an attractive pattern, trying to keep the colours separate!
  • Add the creme fraiche & milk to the beaten eggs; mix well.
  • Sift the self raising flour into the egg mixture; stir in well.
  • Add half of the parmesan cheese, salt and freshly ground black pepper; mix well.
  • Pour over the top of the vegetables, making sure all the spaces are filled in with the custard/batter mix.
  • Scatter the remaining parmesan cheese on top.
  • Cook in a pre-heated oven for between 45 - 60 minutes, or until the clafouti has risen, is firm to the touch and it is golden brown on top.
  • Serve as a vegetable accompaniment, for 4 people or with salad and crusty bread as a light lunch, for 2 people.
  • Individual ones would make an attractive starter - adjust the cooking time down by about 10 minutes; serve in individual baking dish with a side salad.
