Brussels sprouts casserole under cheese
Ingredients:
- 800 g Brussels sprouts, halved
- 200 g pancetta, diced
- 150 g cheddar cheese, grated
- 150 g fontina cheese, grated
- 150 ml yogurt cream
- 2 eggs

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Mix the Brussels sprouts with olive oil and add salt and pepper, then pour into a pan and bake in the oven for about 15 minutes, until they are slightly soft.
While the Brussels sprouts are baking, gently sauté the pancetta in a pan, so that the fat melts and it remains crispy.
Then pour the fat out of the pan and add the finely chopped garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until the garlic becomes glassy. Then add the oregano and stir, and remove from the plate.
Whisk the eggs and yogurt in a bowl and add the grated cheese.
Remove the pan with the Brussels sprouts from the oven and add 3/4 of the pancetta with garlic. Pour the egg and dairy mixture over it and mix everything.
Sprinkle the rest of the pancetta on top and return to the oven, to which you reduced the temperature to 180 degrees. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese starts to bubble.
Remove from the oven and wait a few minutes for it to cool slightly before serving.
