Eggah is a thick, sliceable baked omelet from Cairo. It is made by mixing grated vegetables with eggs and baking the mixture until puffed in an air fryer. Sliced and served cold, it is also suitable for a lunchbox.

Prepare the vegetables

10 min

Squeeze the liquid from the grated zucchini thoroughly by hand. Combine it in a bowl with the carrot and scallions.

Make the Egg Mixture

Beat the eggs with the salt, black pepper, and dill. Add the prepared vegetables and the Kashar cheese, then mix.

Let the cooked omelet rest for 10 minutes before removing it from the mold. Slice and serve.
