👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 180°C (355°F).
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 2
    Heat the oil in a skillet and fry the onion, pepper and zucchini, until they soften.
    ⚙ Pan-fryingStoveFrying pan
  3. 3
    Beat the eggs with the parsley, paprika, salt and black pepper.
  4. 4
    Pour the eggs into the pan and sprinkle the cheese on top.
  5. 5
    Lower the heat and cook 2 minutes, until the bottom sets.
    StoveFrying pan
    💡Low heat and an ovenproof pan: the eggs set slowly and don't burn on the bottom before the top is done.
  6. 6
    Transfer to the oven for 15–18 minutes, until the top is puffed and golden.
