Preheat the Oven: Start by setting your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures that the oven reaches the correct temperature by the time you’re ready to bake.
Prepare the Vegetables:
Potatoes: Peel and grate 3 large potatoes.
Onion: Finely chop 1 large onion.
Carrot: Peel and grate 1 medium carrot.
Pepper: Dice 1 medium pepper (choose any color you prefer).
Spring Onions: Chop a bunch of spring onions, including both the white and green parts.
Place all these prepared vegetables into a large mixing bowl and toss them together to ensure they are well mixed.
Prepare the Batter:
In a separate mixing bowl, crack in 3 eggs.
Add 1 cup (250 ml) of milk to the eggs.
Whisk the eggs and milk together until they are fully combined.
Gradually sift in 200 grams of flour and 1 teaspoon of baking powder to the egg mixture, stirring continuously to prevent any lumps.
Add salt and black pepper to taste (start with about 1 teaspoon of each and adjust according to your preference).
Grate approximately 150 grams of cheese (your choice, something that melts well like cheddar or mozzarella) and fold it into the batter.
Continue to whisk the mixture until it achieves a smooth, uniform consistency without any flour clumps.
Combine Vegetable and Batter Mixtures:
Pour the egg and cheese batter over the mixed vegetables in the large bowl.
Use a large spoon or spatula to stir the mixture, ensuring that the vegetables are evenly coated with the batter.
Prepare the Baking Dish:
Lightly grease a baking dish with sunflower oil. Choose a dish that can accommodate the mixture, allowing it to spread out to about 1-2 inches thick.
Pour the vegetable and batter mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Bake the Dish:
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven.
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top of the bake is golden brown and the edges are crispy.
Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick or a fork into the center of the bake; if it comes out clean, the bake is ready.
