Preparation steps

1.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C in a fan oven), 350°F, gas 4 and line the loaf tin with grease-proof paper.
2.
Blanch the courgette in salted water for around 1 minute, quench in cold water and pat dry. Line the base and sides of the loaf tin with the courgette slices, so that they overhang slightly.
3.
Fry the peppers and onion in hot oil in a frying pan for 2-3 minutes. Take off the heat and leave to cool.
4.
Beat together the egg yolks, garlic, cream and cheese. Stir in the peppers and onion. Whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff and fold into the mixture. Season with salt and ground black pepper and tip into the tin. Fold over the overhanging courgettes and bake in the oven for around 1 hour until golden brown.
5.
Turn out of the tin and serve, warm or cold, cut into slices.
