Learn how to cook Ratatouille

Whenever France comes to my mind, I always think about its great cuisine. Even in the modern times, French chefs are the most sought after and anyone visiting this beautiful country talks about numerous street side restaurants and cafés serving French cuisine. Some of the common French dishes include entrées such as onion soup, foie gras, and bisque and then plat principal (main course) such as pot-au-feu, boeuf bourguignon, and confit de canard along with various salads and finally the scrumptious desserts such as crepes and quiche. The meals are served along with breads, such as baguette, and a variety of cheese and wines. French cheese is famous all over the world and it’s a common sight to see cheese shops selling local specialties.

For today’s recipe, I have picked Ratatouille – not the movie for sure but a traditional French stewed vegetable dish that comes from the city of Nice. This vegetable stew is prepared with tomatoes mixed with vegetables such as zucchini, eggplant, onion, garlic, and herbs. Ratatouille can be served as a main course or a side dish and goes well with rice or bread. I love this recipe and have tried it many times. Here I am sharing this Ratatouille Recipe with you; I’m sure you would also love it.
