Grate the Potatoes and Zucchini: Start by grating the potatoes and zucchini. It’s like creating a canvas for your culinary masterpiece!
Fry the Potatoes: Heat some olive oil in a pan and fry the grated potatoes until they turn golden brown. This step adds a delightful crispiness to the dish.

Bake the recipe: Melt butter in a pan and pour half of the mixture into it. Layer the fried onion and pepper on top, and then cover with the remaining mixture. Bake it at a low temperature under the lid for 5-7 minutes, allowing all the flavors to meld together.
Top it Off with Cheese: After baking, sprinkle grated cheese on top and bake for another 5 minutes until the cheese is beautifully melted and golden brown.
