Pie of Zucchini - Appetizer



This is a very simple and fast Italian recipes that you can prepare when you come back
later from your job and you haven’t any delicious recipes to eat. You
need only some zucchini, a flaky pastry that you can easily found at the
supermarket, cheese, in this case I used ricotta cheese from cow but if
you don’t have this Italian cheese
you can also use what you have at home better a soft Italian cheese like Stracchino or
Asiago cheese, and salame that gives a salted taste to the pie of
zucchini. If you like you can even add an egg. Just cook a little bit
the zucchini, add all the other ingredient to them, and fill the pastry
and bake. Easy, fast and a delicious Italian
recipe is ready!


INGREDIENTS (for 6 people)

1 Round flaky pastry
1 / 2 Onion

6 Zucchini
250g of Ricotta
cheese
8 Slices of Salame
40g of Parmesan
3-4 Tablespoons
of Extra virgin olive oil
Salt
Pepper

PREPARATION
TIME: 25 minutes


COOKING
TIME: 30-40 minutes


WINE:
Golfo del Tigullio Vermentino (White Wine)


PREPARATION

Clean and cut in thin slices the zucchini. Preheat the
extra virgin olive oil in a large pan, cut the onion in thin slices then
add them to the extra virgin olive oil and let them brown. Cook the
zucchini on a low flame for about 15-20 minutes.



When the zucchini are ready put
them in a bowl, add the ricotta cheese, the slices of salame, Parmesan,
a bit of salt and pepper and mix all together. Better if the ricotta
cheese is from cow.




Place a sheet of baking paper
on the bottom of a baking-pan, place over it the pastry and makes some
little holes on its surface with a fork.




Fill the pastry with the
mixture of zucchini and ricotta cheese.




Bake at 180-200 degree for
about 40 minutes until the surface becomes golden. Serve warm.

BUON APPETITO!
