TOMATO/ZUCCHINI CASSEROLE



Tomato/Zucchini Casserole image

Like it or Lump it! Zucchini (Courjette) is a fact of life, and true to its inherent squash quality, they do grow to an enormous size. What does one do with so much zucchini? Make zucchini bread for bake sales, for pot lucks, for gifts at Christmas, for hostess gifts. or make a lovely tomato/zucchini casseroles for a nice change. The addition of salt in this recipe is rather discretionary, given the salt factor in the cheeses. Govern yourself accordingly. Although the salt item is included in the recipe, personally, I omit it entirely (once again, because of the cheeses).

TOMATO AND ZUCCHINI CASSEROLE WITH CRISP CHEDDAR TOPPING



Tomato and Zucchini Casserole With Crisp Cheddar Topping image

This casserole is a modern twist on an old favorite, the tomato-zucchini bake. But instead of a Parmesan and bread-crumb topping, this one is covered in a savory oat and Cheddar crumble that crisps and browns in the oven. Dollops of garlicky, herbed ricotta make the casserole wonderfully rich and creamy, while olives liven it up with their salty tang. This is equally good warm or at room temperature, preferably served within four hours of baking so the topping stays crunchy. Or you could make it the night before and reheat it in a 375-degree oven until bubbling. It makes an excellent side dish or meatless main course.

Categories     dinner, casseroles, main course

Time 1h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

5 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed, more for buttering casserole dish
1 1/2 cups whole milk ricotta
1/2 cup fresh basil or mint leaves

1 teaspoon fine sea salt, more as needed
1/2 cup high-quality pitted black olives, roughly chopped
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh chopped oregano or marjoram
3/4 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
Pinch cayenne pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil, as needed

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees and butter a 9- by 13-inch casserole dish or 2-quart gratin dish.
  • In a food processor or blender, purée the ricotta, basil and garlic.
  • Toss tomatoes, zucchini and 1 teaspoon salt in casserole to combine, then spread into an even layer. Dollop with ricotta mixture and scatter olives evenly across the top.
  • In a medium bowl, combine flour, oats, cheese, oregano or marjoram, lemon zest, cayenne and a large pinch of salt. Use your fingertips to work in the 5 tablespoons butter; you should end up with small clumps. Scatter clumps over vegetables, then drizzle liberally with olive oil.
  • Bake until golden and bubbly, 35 to 45 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

ROGER VERGé'S ZUCCHINI AND TOMATO CASSEROLE (TIAN DE COURGETTES ET TOMATES)



Roger Vergé's Zucchini and Tomato Casserole (Tian de Courgettes Et Tomates) image

Craig Claiborne brought this recipe to The Times in a 1981 article about the late Roger Vergé, a founding father of nouvelle cuisine. This is an adaptation of Mr. Vergé's dish. It requires a little time, but it's a perfect way to celebrate summer's bounty.

Provided by Craig Claiborne

Categories     dinner, main course, side dish

Time 2h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 medium-sized red peppers, about 1/2 pound, optional
6 medium-sized zucchini, about 1 3/4 pounds
4 large red, ripe tomatoes, about 2 1/2 pounds
1 large onion, about 1/2 pound
1/3 cup plus 1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon finely minced garlic
Salt to taste, if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 teaspoon dried thyme or 4 sprigs fresh thyme broken into small pieces

Steps:

  • If the peppers are to be used, preheat the broiler. Place the peppers under the broiler and roast until they are burnt on one side. Turn and roast on the other side. Continue turning until roasted all over, top and bottom. Put in a plastic bag to cool. Peel. Discard the stems and seeds. Cut the peppers into thin strips. There should be about three-quarters of a cup.
  • Trim off the ends of the zucchini. Using a swivel-bladed vegetable cutter, trim off the sides of each zucchini, leaving intervals of green to make a pattern. Cut the zucchini on the bias into quarter-inch slices. There should be about seven cups.
  • Remove the cores from the tomatoes. Cut each tomato slice about one-third inch thick.
  • Peel the onion and cut it in half crosswise. Cut each half into very thin slices. There should be about two cups. Put the onion in a heavy saucepan.
  • Add one-third cup of oil and the water to the onion. Bring to the boil and cook over relatively high heat about 10 or 12 minutes. When ready, the onion will be nicely glazed and lightly browned. Do not burn.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Spoon the onion over the bottom of an oval or rectangular baking dish (a dish that measures about 13 1/2 by 8 by 2 inches is ideal). Sprinkle the garlic and pepper strips over the onion.
  • Arrange a layer of tomatoes, letting them lean at an angle against the sides of the baking dish. Arrange a layer of zucchini against the tomatoes. Continue making layers until all the tomatoes and zucchini are used. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste and the thyme. Dribble the remaining one-quarter cup of oil over all.
  • Place in the oven and bake 30 minutes. Increase the oven heat to 475 degrees and continue baking about 45 minutes. At this point the top of the vegetables will be quite dark. Press the vegetables down with a flat pancake turner. Return to the oven and continue baking 15 minutes. Serve hot or cold.

ZUCCHINI, TOMATO & CHEESE CASSEROLE



Zucchini, Tomato & Cheese Casserole image

Got some zucchini that you need to use? This is the dish for you. I originally saw this recipe in Southern Living Magazine and then couldn't find the magazine when I wanted to cook it. I remembered basically what the ingredients were, just not the amounts. With some experimentation, I created a dish that tastes pretty delish! It's one of those dishes that makes people go back for seconds. Frying the zucchini before adding it to the casserole, helps to seal the moisture inside.
