    4 medium size zucchini
    2 tablespoons unsalted butter

    5 tablespoons, chopped parsley
    4 tablespoons cilantro leaves, finely chopped

Melt butter in a skillet and add onion. Allow onion to cook for 2 more minutes. Add kernels, parsley and cilantro. Cook for 2 minutes and add zucchini and wine. Lower heat and cook 5 minutes more. Remove cover and cook until liquid has evaporated. Season.

Beat eggs, add cream and combine with the vegetable mixture and cheese. Season with salt and pepper.

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).

Butter a rectangular or loaf pan and sprinkle crumbs on bottom and sides.

Pour mixture and bake over hot water for 1 hour. Remove from oven and wait 5 minutes before unmolding.

Serve with Tomato Sauce.
