Step cooking
- Broccoli cabbage is previously boiled. To do this, we parse 1 kg of cabbage (you can take both fresh and frozen) into inflorescences and cook for 3 minutes in salted water. Then we throw it in a colander and sprinkle it with cold water.
- On a coarse grater, rub 300 g of hard cheese (ideally, mozzarella, but any can).
- Cut into small slices 2 tomatoes. If you take the cherry, then they will need 10 pieces - with them the casserole will look even more beautiful.
- Grind 5-6 feathers of green onions.
- Break 5 eggs into a bowl. Salt to taste. Also add black pepper to taste.
- Beat the eggs with a whisk.
- Continuing to beat, pour 400-500 ml of cream (milk) into the egg mixture. You can take cream of any fat content, but the fatter - the tastier.
- Add to the mass 200 g of grated cheese, once again mix everything well.
- Grease a baking dish with butter (you will need 50 grams).
- Put a layer of broccoli on the bottom.
- Lay out tomato slices on top.
- Pour the egg mixture.
- Sprinkle with green onions. You can pepper a little more or sprinkle with any herbs as desired.
- Lay out the remaining 100 g of cheese on top.
- Preheat the oven to 180ºС. Set the form there. After 20 minutes, increase the temperature in the oven to 220 ºС and turn on the convection mode - in order to get a baked crust. Bake for another 5 minutes.
Useful Tips
- Casserole can be cooked not only in the oven, but also in the slow cooker by setting the “Baking” mode.
- In this dish, other products will combine quite harmoniously. For example, if desired, add onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, chicken or minced meat, nutmeg or Provence herbs.
- Cream can be replaced with sour cream.
