How to Make Cheesy Zucchini and Mushroom Pie

  1. Place the zucchini on your working board and thinly slice it.
  2. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic, mushrooms, and season with salt and pepper. Cook them for 3-4 minutes.
  3. Pour the heavy cream into a large bowl. Add the eggs, and season with cardamom, sumac, and salt. Whisk until smooth.
  4. Preheat the oven to 360 degrees F/180 degrees C.
