Zucchini Pie / Fırında Mücver

Writer's Note: Hello men, see that spread? That's the way ladies brunch when you aren't around. A few weeks ago I was invited to ladies' brunch with a group of amazing women -- lawyers, development specialists, human rights activists. They were candy for my brain. And the food was phenomenal. Sorry, boys, we were perfectly content without you.

Ingredients:

2 eggs
2 tbsp. cottage cheese
2-4 tbsp. fresh dill, chopped
500 grams feta cheese
1 large red onion, diced
3 tbsp. olive oil
2 zucchinis, grated on coarse grater, salted and drained after 20 minutes
1-3 tsp. Urfa or Aleppo pepper
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. dried mint
3/4 cup flour

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cook red onion in olive oil until soft and translucent. Squeeze the water out of the grated zucchini with your hands so they are as dry as possible. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Grease a small square pyrex dish with olive oil or butter. Pour ingredients in dish and bake for 25-35 minutes until it is firm and a toothpick comes out clean.
