Where to find ingredients
You can find all ingredients at local municipal markets or neighbourhood grocery shops. Ensure your tomatoes are firm and the mozzarella is fresh for the best texture. If you cannot find pre-grated cheese, any sharp hard cheese makes a suitable substitute for the topping.
Preparation method
- Add the eggs, milk, oil, flour, baking powder, and salt into a blender.
- Blend on high until you achieve a smooth, liquid batter.
- Grease a baking tin with butter or oil.
- Pour half of the prepared batter into the bottom of the tin.
- Distribute the mozzarella, ham, tomato, and onion filling evenly over the batter.
- Cover with the remaining half of the batter.
- Finish by sprinkling the grated cheese and oregano over the top.
- Place the tin into a preheated oven.
- Bake for approximately 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
