CORN, ZUCCHINI, AND TOMATO PIE



Corn, Zucchini, and Tomato Pie image

Provided by Diane Phillips

Categories     Tomato     Bake     Parmesan     Corn     Zucchini     Summer

Yield Makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups fresh, or frozen and defrosted corn kernels
5 small zucchini, cut into matchstick pieces
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh dill weed
2 tablespoons melted butter
3 to 4 vine-ripened tomatoes, cut into 1/2-inch slices
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°. In a 13 by 9-inch ovenproof baking dish, combine the corn, zucchini, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of pepper, the dill, and the melted butter, tossing to coat the vegetables. Cover the vegetable swith the tomatoes. Sprinkle with the remaining salt and pepper.
  • In a small bowl, combine the cheese and the bread crumbs. Sprinkle the mixture over the tomatoes and drizzle with the olive oil. Bake the pie for 30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling. Remove it from the oven, and let it stand for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right zucchini: Use medium-sized zucchini that are firm and have smooth skin. Avoid zucchini that are too large or have blemishes.
  • Grate the zucchini properly: Use a box grater to grate the zucchini. Be sure to grate the zucchini in long, thin strips. This will help the zucchini cook evenly.
  • Squeeze out the excess moisture from the zucchini: After grating the zucchini, place it in a colander and squeeze out the excess moisture. This will help prevent the pie from becoming too watery.
  • Use a pre-made pie crust: To save time, you can use a pre-made pie crust. However, if you want to make your own pie crust, there is a recipe included in the article.
  • Don't overfill the pie crust: Be sure to not overfill the pie crust. Otherwise, the filling may spill over and make a mess.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set: The pie is done baking when the crust is golden brown and the filling is set. This usually takes about 45-50 minutes.

Conclusion:

Zucchini pie is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is a great way to use up leftover zucchini and is also a healthy alternative to traditional pies. With its creamy custard filling and flaky crust, zucchini pie is sure to be a hit with family and friends.
