Hello everybody, I hope you are having an incredible day today. Today, we’re going to make a special dish, ratatouille. It is one of my favorites. This time, I will make it a bit unique. This will be really delicious.

Ratatouille is one of the most favored of current trending meals in the world. It is enjoyed by millions daily. It is simple, it is fast, it tastes yummy. They are fine and they look wonderful. Ratatouille is something that I’ve loved my whole life.

All I can say is if you do not watch it, you will be missing out on a very very very special movie. I have never written a review on here before, but this movie made me write one. In the hilarious new animated-adventure, Ratatouille, a rat named Remy dreams of becoming a great chef despite his family's wishes and the obvious problem of being a rat in a decidedly rodent-phobic.

To get started with this recipe, we have to first prepare a few components. You can cook ratatouille using 13 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you cook that.

The ingredients needed to make Ratatouille:

1. Take 1 zucchini; medium dice
2. Make ready 1 yellow squash; medium dice
3. Prepare 1 eggplant; peeled and medium dice
4. Prepare 1 bell pepper; medium dice
5. Make ready 1 red onion; medium dice
6. Get 3 large tomatoes
7. Make ready 3 clove garlic; minced
8. Prepare 1 handful basil; chiffonade
9. Make ready 1 bunch parsley; chopped
10. Take 1 tbsp thyme; minced
11. Get 3/4 cup vegetable stock
12. Get 1 vegetable or olive oil
13. Make ready 1 salt and pepper

Steps to make Ratatouille:

1. Generously season the eggplant with salt, and place aside. A slimey looking ooze will extract itself. This takes the bitterness away. Eggplant secret ;)
2. Boil a large pot of water. Score the underside of each tomato with an "X". Not too deep, this is just to peel the skin away. Add the tomatoes when the water boils, but only for 30 seconds. This is to loosen the skin, not cook. Drop tomatoes into an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
3. Peel the skin off the tomatoes. Remove core from tomatoes. Keep the soft tomato flesh and roughly chop it. This is called tomato concasse. Set aside.
4. In a large saute pan, heat oil. Add zucchini and squash. Season. Saute until 90% done. Place in a large mixing bowl.
5. Saute bell pepper and onion next. Season. Add garlic when 50% done and saute until fragrant. Place in the mixing bowl with the squash.
6. Saute the eggplant until 90% complete. The eggplant will soak up considerably more oil than the other veggies. Add sauteed veggie mix to the sauteed eggplant. Add tomato concasse. Add pepper. You may need to switch to a larger pot.
7. Add vegetable stock and cook until veggies are tender. Add fresh herbs. Adjust salt if necessary.
