For alternatives, the first listed ingredient is used. Cooking losses have not been measured.

Calculated estimate using the reference foods below. Substitute products, item weights and consumed fractions are assumptions. Ordinary cooking oil and marinades are counted in full; frying oil, coatings, bones and whole roasts use the stated factors. The higher serving count is used for ranges.

Ingredients

  • 600 g zucchini
  • 2 medium-sized onions (approx. 300 g)
  • 4 eggs size M
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp salt
  • black pepper
  • 2 tbsp finely chopped parsley, optional

Instructions

  1. Wash the zucchini and cut into thin half slices; Peel and finely chop the onions.
  2. Heat olive oil in a wide pan. Fry the onions over medium heat for 8 minutes until soft and translucent, not brown.
  3. Add the zucchini, season lightly with salt and simmer for another 12-15 minutes until excess liquid has evaporated.
  4. Whisk eggs briefly in a bowl. Reduce heat and pour eggs over vegetables. Stir slowly until the eggs are just set; do not fry dry.
  5. Serve with pepper and parsley if desired, accompanied by strong bread.

Tips

  • Patience is worth it: First the water in the zucchini evaporates, then the eggs combine with the vegetables in a nice and creamy way.
  • Some households add potatoes; this is a regional variant, here deliberately without potatoes.
