Saturday Oven Bake - Lördagslåda

SATURDAY OVEN BAKE
Lördagslåda

As I might have told you I translate the recipe titles straight off the best I can, and sometimes I run into trouble. For instance, the word "låda". It really means "box" or even "drawer" in a desk or the like, but in Sweden, and especially a few decades back, a culinary "låda" is a dish, almost always with eggs, that is baked in the oven with other ingredients. So I call it "oven bake" … as I don't have a better name for it!

Serves 4

2 middle-sized onions
1 red bell pepper
2 green bell peppers
butter or margarine
4 eggs
1.2 cups heavy cream
½ teaspoon salt
a little black pepper
0.4 cup grated ripe cheese
approx 5 oz streaky bacon


Heat the oven to 390F.

Peel and slice the onions. Trim the bell peppers and cut them in rings. Sautée onions and bell peppers in a saucepan in some fat for about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a greased, oven-proof pan. Beat eggs and cream and flavor with salt and black pepper.

Add cheese and pour this egg mixture in the pan. Bake until the eggs have set, about 30 minutes. Serve with fried bacon and vegetables.

Enjoy!
