This is another one of those go to meals in our home, especially when I don’t have time to make something or I want to use up extra veggies. You can basically substitute any of the veggie ingredients and it should still come out great (hence the name, it’s impossible to get it wrong).
I must admit we have been trying to keep Mr B from having too much dairy, in fact I never use it in his homemade meals but I wanted to change up the original recipe and leave out the wheat flour, so I thought I would leave out one ingredient at a time. Next time I make it I will try a dairy free version instead. Oh and I should mention we have a Bellini, which is the cheaper version of the Thermomix, so if you don’t have either of those you can try make this in a food processor or just grate the vegetables and mix it all up in an ordinary bowl.
Recipe:
1/2 c flour (I used spelt)
1/2 c butter (really soft or melted)
4 eggs
1 c milk
1 c cream
1/2 c grated cheese
1 tsp Mixed herbs
Any veg you like, we used: 1/2 capsicum, 1 tomato, 1 carrot, half head broccoli, bunch of asparagus
In the Bellini (food processor, thermie or grated) blend the capsicum, carrot and the tomato on sp 5 for 5 sec.
Meanwhile chop up the broccoli and asparagus into nice chunks and add to the bowl, mix on sp 2 for 5 sec
Scrape down the sides and add the rest of the ingredients and mix on 1 for 1 min.
Pour it into a greased pie dish, sprinkle with a handful of cheese if you want and bake at 180 deg for 40 minutes.
If you have any questions about cooking with the Bellini, please feel free to ask us and we will try our best to help you out 🙂
Enjoy xx
