What is Ratatouille?
If you have kids then I’m sure that you’re familiar with the movie called Ratatouille but what exactly is the food? Well, trust me when I tell you that this dish is one of the best ways to cook up some vegetables! Ratatouille is thinly sliced vegetables such as eggplant, squash, zucchini, and tomatoes that are seasoned and baked in a delicious sauce. Ratatouille not only makes an excellent option for a side dish but it is completely filling on its own. Serve it with a French baguette or even some delicious garlic bread. I love using the sauce to dip them in! This recipe is simple to make but when you see it finished all baked and full of color, you will see that it not only tastes amazing but it looks so fancy! Try it out, I think it will become a favorite!
Ingredients in Ratatouille
These ingredients are so delicious and easy. The sauce that these vegetables are cooked in makes my mouth water! See the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.
Extra virgin olive oil: The extra virgin olive oil is adds a delicious flavor. Garlic cloves: If you don’t have fresh garlic cloves you can use minced garlic. ½ tsp equals about 1 clove of garlic. Yellow onion: This is going in your sauce so chop the pieces up really small. Crushed tomatoes: This will be used as the base of the sauce. Balsamic vinegar: Balsamic vinegar brings the best flavor to this sauce. Italian herbs: This will bring in those classic herb that you typically see in a marinara sauce. Sea salt: You will put this in to taste. Vegetables: Zucchini, yellow squash, Japanese eggpant, tomatoes are classic in ratatouille.
How to Make Ratatouille
Ratatouille seems so intimidating but it’s really not! In less than an hour, you can have this steaming on your table and ready to eat!
Sliced vegetables: When you slice up your vegetables, try to make them all about the same size. That way they will cook evenly. Keep it thick: If you want to keep your sauce from getting runny then stir it often. If it starts to become runny then turn the heat up a bit and continue stirring. Double the recipe: This ratatouille tastes so good (if not better) the next day so if I were you, I would just cook up some extra all at the same time. You won’t regret it!
