Recipe's Ingredients

  Quantities for people → Recalculate
  • fine salt
  • 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • red pepper flakes, to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ tablespoons minced herbs, such as thyme or basil [optional]
  • 400 g zucchini, cut into bite-sized chunks
  • 80 g comté cheese, grated
  • 130 g yellow onions, shredded
  • 450 g tomatoes, cored, peeled, seeded, and shredded
  • Recipe preparation steps

  • 1
    Prepare the tomato sauce: heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions, sprinkle with a pinch of salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft but not browned.
  • 2
    Add the garlic and stir to mix. Add the tomatoes, pepper flakes, and a little more salt. Mix well. When the tomatoes start to expel some liquid, reduce heat and simmer until the tomatoes are cooked through and mostly dry. Stir often.
  • 3
    Season the sauce with the black pepper and test for salt. Add the fresh herbs and mix well. [Optional]
  • 4
    Set the sauce aside to cool until needed. The sauce can be prepared a day or two before it is needed and kept refrigerated.
  • 5
    Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
  • 6
    Mix the zucchini chunks with the tomato sauce. Divide the mixture between individual baking dishes or place it in a single, large baking dish. Sprinkle the cheese over the top of the zucchini mixture.
  • 7
    Bake the zucchini until it is tender and the cheese is melted and browned a bit, about 30 to 35 minutes.
