You simply cannot fail with this recipe! The secret is the Self Raising Flour which gives it a light airy texture and allows the middle to cook all the way through without burning the bottom or edges.
Ingredients:
8 eggs
1c Self Raising Flour
1c grated cheese (any kind)
2tbl oil
1/2c cream (or milk)
2 spring onions or 1 red onion chopped finely
1-2 sheets of ready rolled shortcrust pastry
Salt and Pepper to taste
Optional: (for those who don't like it plain!)
Add whatever you like such as mushrooms, bacon, ham, spinach, corn, shredded zucchini or carrot
Method:
I cracked three eggs on the top before cooking for effect |
Preheat your oven to 180 Celcius
1. Whip the eggs and SR Flour together until bubbly and the flour has dissolved.
2. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
3. Oil and line the bottom and sides of a deep oven proof dish
4. Pour the mixture into the dish. If you like, you can crack another couple of eggs over the top for effect
5. Bake for approx. 45 minutes on the middle shelf, or until a skewer or sharp knife comes out clean after being inserted.
Handy Tip
Egg shells are porous, and can absorb odours from the fridge, so always store eggs in their cardboard container.
