Today I want to share with you a Traditional Italian recipe from Liguria.
Courgettes Pie This Courgettes Pie recipe is from my Grandma (I miss her so much)
Ingredients:
2 courgettes
1/3 medium-sized butternut squash (same amount of a courgette)
½ onion
Parmesan
3 whole eggs
Salt
Half handful of rice
1 roll of Puff Pastry (already made)
In a large bowl:
Shred the courgettes, the butternut squash, and the onion on a hand grater
Add Grated Parmesan
Add three whole eggs
Add Salt
Add the half handful of rice
Roll out puff pastry sheet on lightly floured surface.
With a roller make thinner the dough and large enough to be folded.
Lay the puff pastry on a greased and floured baker tray.
Pour the mixture over the pastry.
Fold the pastry over the filling and press to seal.
Put the tray in oven at about 190 degrees.
Cook the pie for 45 minutes.
If you prefer you can use only butternut squash or 3 courgettes or…
seasonal vegetables like artichokes, peas, swiss chards to make your own vegetable (or not vegetable) pie.
Today I’ve made my pie adding some slices of ham to make happy my cat.
I’m joking, it was for my boyfriend.
