History of Ratatouille?

This cooked vegetable dish originated in France, very healthy and low fat summer vegetable stew. The word ratatouille comes from the Occitan term “ratatolha” and the French word “rata” means chunky stew and “touiller” which means to toss food or stir up. In a few words, here you are tossing all the vegetables and making a flavorful meal. This dish is usually served with meat and fish, but if you are a vegetarian, it can also be served as a main dish over rice. This vegetable stew can be eaten either hot or at room temperature. In fact, it tastes even better the next day. You will find many varieties of ratatouille similar to the ingredients used in it and making it this way also enhances its taste.

Different ways to cook

The first way is to cook all the vegetables at once, until it is cooked from the bottom.

The second way is to cook the zucchini and eggplants separately, then mix them with the onions, tomatoes and peppers at the end. Bake and serve over rice.

There is another way to make it, in which we stir fry garlic and onion in the beginning and then add brinjal, zucchini, tomato and chilli.

What to serve Ratatouille with?

So if you’d like to serve Ratatouille as a main course, I suggest to serve it over a cooked grain such as rice, quinoa, or pasta. You can also serve the leftovers over your favorite pizza crust as a pizza topping.

It takes a little time to cook properly, so I would recommend cooking it on Sundays so that people will have delicious and different colors of food to eat throughout the week.
