Step 1
Preheat oven to 180C/160C fan-forced. Grease a 7cm-deep, 19cm x 24cm (2.3-litre-capacity) oval ovenproof dish.

Whisk eggs, milk, garlic and dried herbs together in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Pour over bread mixture.

Cover with foil. Bake for 50 minutes or until egg is just beginning to set. Remove and discard foil. Sprinkle with reserved capsicum mixture. Bake for a further 20 to 25 minutes or until top is golden and egg is set. Stand for 10 minutes.
