• French Cooking for the Veggies Lovers - Ratatouille!

  Today, I'll be bringing you guys to the South of France, where we'll enjoy a popular Provençal dish called "Ratatouille"! I'm gonna dedicated this recipe to all the veggies lovers here, especially, macphoto@Xanga, ZSA_MD@Xanga and my dear friend, Leny. :) Those of you who have caught the Ratatouille animation movie should be familiar with this dish by now. It's a really simple dish, filled with all the vegetable goodness you can get on one plate!
  
  

  

  
  
  

  So, here are the ingredients:

  • 2 pounds of tomatoes
  • 1 zucchini
  • 1 eggplant
  • 2-3 capscicums of different colors
  • 1 onion
  • Some fresh basil leaves
  • Thyme, Salt, Pepper

  First, slice all the above vegetables.
  
  
  Next, spread some olive oil on the pot and put everything in.
  
  
  Pour in a cup of water. Add salt, pepper and thyme. Let it brew for 2 hours.
  
  
  Voila! I have added some mushrooms, green olives & salami for extra flavor. ;) You can have it with white rice or bread. Both go extremely well with this dish.
  
   
  So here is my personal all-time-favorite vegetables dish. What's yours? :)
