♪ Cookin'... Gonna make us some food now. ♫
Well guys, it's that time of the day again.
Time for a bit of cooking, because we're getting hungry.
I know I am.
Anyway I've decided why not use some ingredients that I've got sitting in the fridge and sort
of just lying around.
Now I remember I had a zucchini sitting there so why don't I make a zucchini pie.
So egg, bacon, zucchini pie.
Let's just call it a zucchini bush pie.
How's that sound?
We're gonna cheat with the pastry, but I'm gonna put some really fresh, yummy, wholesome
ingredients in there.
I'm gonna use the camp oven to cook it.
Makes it easy. I'll show you how.
So first of all I've got this special little sort of baking pie tray.
Now that fits neatly into my camp oven on top of the trivet.
So let's give that a whirl.
Now the most important part is to make sure that you spray the tray or the pie tin,
because if you don't spray it, that little sucker ain't gonna come out.
Now if you're gonna make an egg pie, you're gonna need eggs.
So let's get some eggs rockin.
Here we go found some eggs.
I'm not gonna need too many eggs for this one.
I reckon probably three eggs is gonna do it.
Three eggs.
Let's whack them in here.
Got my mixing bowl.
All righty, so you've got a couple of eggs here.
I'm just gonna beat those eggs together, just like that.
Now a little bit of flour, just a little bit like that.
Bit of cream. About that much.
So we're gonna mix that up now.
Let's go for the most important bit of pie, and that's the pie crust.
Now I've got some short bread crust or whatever they call it.
I don't know. It's not like puff pastry.
I'll tell you, it's called shortcut pastry, so the reason being is it doesn't expand like
the puff pastry as much.
Make sure you take the plastic off both sides.
You do not want to be putting that plastic in your pie.
So we're just gonna lay it over like that.
Yeah I'm definitely gonna need two sheets.
I'm gonna bed this one in.
Make sure she beds in nice.
I'll get another bit over here.
Just cut some bits.
Give a little bit of a stretch, that helps.
I'm just gonna lay that in there like that.
Fill in all your gaps.
You want to make it look good.
That's looking good.
Look at that.
Looks like a little pie base going on there.
All right, so you can grate the zucchini, but I actually don't have a grater.
So I'm gonna actually cut the zucchini into thin slices like this.
So what I might do is, I might start laying the bottom of my pie with the zucchini slices.
Let's get a few tomatoes.
Chuck a few tomatoes on.
I'm gonna cut these ones in half.
So I'm just going to whack them in there like that.
Chuck some mushrooms in.
Just like that.
I'm gonna grab these other ingredients, and I'm gonna put them into my mixture here.
So I'm gonna grab things like cheese, a little bit of onion, baby spinach leaves--we're just
going to chuck few of those in--and of course, don't forget bacon.
Everyone loves bacon.
So a bit of a mix-up.
Look at that. That's just looking flash. It's not even cooked yet.
So we'll go another two eggs.
So that gives us five eggs.
Mix them up.
Now we're gonna get that in there basically.
So let's pour it in.
Now remember the egg is going to expand, so just be careful and allow for expansion.
There we go that cheese is gonna melt like nothing.
Then I'm gonna stick a couple of these on top.
Couple of mushrooms.
Just because I can.
And a couple of tomatoes because it gives it that color.
There we go look at that. Doesn't that look flash.
Looks pretty good to me.
Quick sprinkle on top.
Done.
Zucchini pie ready to rock and roll.
Let's chuck it in the camp oven.
Oh there we go.
Some on the bottom. Some on the top.
We're good to go.
Like I say... 30 minutes maybe? Tops 40.
Keep checking it. If you check it, you can't go wrong.
[music]
That's a good-looking pie.
Very good-looking pie.
I got this bowl. So I'm gonna set that on top of my bowl.
I'm gonna use my bowl, pull that away, and I'm gonna grab knife under here.
Try not to roll your pie off the table.
Move that out of the way.
And there we have it.
A beautiful looking pie.
Zucchini bush pie, let's call it.
The zucchini bush pie with short cut pastry.
Let's see what it looks like inside.
And there you go guys. A beautiful looking pie. It wasn't hard to make.
I'm gonna go and enjoy it.
I hope you liked that recipe, because there's many more in my new bush cookbook
“about that much” with a bonus dvd.
