Corn and Cheese Pashtida (Crustless Quiche) image

We are a busy family and make simple, crustless quiches (pashtidas) all the time, using whatever vegetable we have in the fridge, tossing everything together in a bowl. Only the baking takes time. The leftovers keep in the fridge for several days and reheat beautifully. The recipe is easily adaptable to tastes and feeds several for lunch or dinner, alongside a salad.

Number Of Ingredients 9

400 g corn (or other shredded vegetable, e.g. sweet potato, zucchini, broccoli or spinach)
5 eggs
2 cups cottage cheese (or other soft white cheese)
1/2 cup parmesan cheese or 1/2 cup cheddar cheese
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup cream (or milk)
1 teaspoon salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 180C (350F).
  • Use oil or butter to grease a baking pan.
  • Remove the corn kernels from the cob. (If using zucchini or sweet potato, grate or slice finely. Spinach should be cooked with a little oil in a pan and drained of its water.).
  • In a large bowl, scramble the eggs. Add the cheeses and cream to the eggs. Add the vegetable. Slowly stir in the flour, salt, and pepper.
  • Pour the mix into the greased baking pan.
  • Place in the oven and bake for approximately 45 minutes, or until the top and edges become very lightly brown.
