Pashtida is an Israeli no-crust quiche. This version uses solid ricotta and a combination of courgettes and peas but you can swap in whichever vegetables your family prefers or what’s in season.

The addition of pesto takes this from a simple traybake to something that your friends and family will request time and time again — at least mine do.

The recipe is a great one for children to help make and it’s a firm favourite with my family.
