The first thing we do is wash the courgettes and cut them into thin sheets. At the same time, we heat the oven to 190º C. Once cut, we grill it with a little olive oil, brown it and season with salt (and pepper if you like).
On the other hand, beat four eggs with 600 ml of whole milk and a pinch of salt in a bowl. When they are well beaten, we also add a little nutmeg, some chopped basil leaves and a little oregano.
The next step is to grease a baking dish with butter and place the courgettes on the bottom. Sprinkle the grated cheese on top. Then, pour the beaten eggs on top and add an additional layer of grated cheese. Y ready to put in the oven for 30 minutes, until the cream is curdled (solid). When ready, cool to room temperature before serving.
This dish can be accompanied by onion on top. Cut them into thin strips and cook them in a pan with a splash of oil, a little salt and pepper. And also hot tomato sauce.
