Initially, ratatouille was popular only among humble farmers. They prepared the dish from vegetables that they grew in their own gardens: peppers, tomatoes, onions, garlic and zucchini. Olive oil and basil were always added. It didn’t take long before ratatouille became the most famous French vegetable dish. And, perhaps, the healthiest thanks to al dente – a cooking option in which vegetables retain their shape, elasticity and maximum vitamins.

How to cook Ratatouille

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and fry the onion until golden brown. Add the garlic and fry for 2 minutes, then add the remaining vegetables and fry everything together for 6 minutes, stirring constantly.

Step 2

Reduce heat to low and add basil. Simmer vegetables under the lid for 10 minutes. Season the finished ratatouille with salt, pepper, stir and serve.
