Zucchini Gratin

I am a huge fan of gratin.  A dish that is topped off with a golden crust is always a winner.  Use any type of grated cheese for this recipe and rather than grating the zucchini, like I did for this recipe, you can chop them up into any shape you prefer (round slices, half moons, etc.). 

Ingredients:
(serves 3)
-3 large zucchinis
-1 large onion
-3/4 cup creme fraiche
-Salt & pepper
-1 tablespoon olive oil
-1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
-1/3 cup bread crumbs

Instructions:

-Peel and chop up onion.

-Grate the zucchinis.

-Sauté the onion in olive oil for 4 minutes or until soft.

-Add zucchini and sauté for another 4 minutes or until tender.

-Season with salt and pepper.

-Put cooked zucchini and onion in a sifter and drain the excess liquid.

-Place everything in a bake dish and add the creme fraiche.

-Top with shredded Swiss cheese and sprinkle with bread crumbs.

-Bake in the oven, on the bottom level, at 200 degrees C for 45 minutes.
