Added: 2nd Feb, 2006 | Viewed 569 times | |
Ratatouille is essentially 'sauteed vegetable soup' and is one of the most versatile accompaniment recipe for meats. Versatile because it can be quickly adapted to the vegetables available to you without changing the cooking method. This is the classic version using peppers, courgettes, onions and tomatoes minus the aubergine.

Method
Heat oil in a thick saucepan. Add the peppers and onions. Fry for a minute. Cover and reduce heat. Cook for 20 minutes stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft. Add the courgettes and tomatoes. Sprinkle salt and pepper. Cook without covering for a further 10 minutes, until the courgettes are tender.
