Ingredients
- 6 large Eggs
- 1 medium Onion
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 1 medium Bell pepper
- 1/4 cup Fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup Fresh cilantro
- 1/2 tsp Ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/4 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.
Instructions
- 1Preheat your oven to 190°C. Dice the 1 medium onion, 1 medium zucchini, and 1 medium bell pepper into 0.635 cm pieces. Finely chop the 1/4 cup fresh parsley and the 1/4 cup fresh cilantro.
- 2Place an oven-safe skillet (e.g., a 25.4 cm cast iron skillet) over medium heat on your stovetop. Add the 1 tbsp olive oil to the skillet, then add the diced 1 medium onion, 1 medium zucchini, and 1 medium bell pepper. Sauté the vegetables for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they have softened.
- 3In a large bowl, combine the 6 large eggs, chopped 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, 1/2 tsp ground cumin, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Whisk vigorously until the eggs are completely blended and the mixture is slightly frothy.
- 4Pour the whisked egg mixture evenly over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Carefully transfer the skillet to the preheated oven at 190°C and bake for 25-30 minutes. The eggah is done when the center is set (no longer liquid when gently jiggled) and the top is lightly golden brown.
- 5Remove the skillet from the oven and let the eggah cool in the skillet for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve the Egyptian Eggah warm or at room temperature.
