EASY OVEN-BAKED RATATOUILLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Cut all the vegetables (eggplant, zucchini, bell pepper, tomatoes, onions) so that they are approximately the same size and can cook evenly. Transfer them on a large rimmed baking tray. Add the garlic and herbs (thyme, bay leaves, and rosemary (optional). Sprinkle enough salt, pepper, and olive oil to enrobe them. Mix with your hands and spread them evenly on the baking sheet. It might seem crowded but they will shrink while cooking.
• Put the baking tray in the oven for 15 minutes. Lower the temperature oven to 375 F for another 15 minutes. Then lower the temperature oven to 350 F for the rest of the time (about 30 more minutes). I recommend stirring occasionally (every 15-20 minutes) to ensure the vegetables cook evenly. In the end, they must be very tender and hold their shapes.
• Before serving, remove the herbs and add some basil to garnish (optional).

• Meanwhile, heat the remaining olive oil in a frying pan and cook the sausages for about 5 mins until lightly browned on all sides.
• Stir the garlic and chopped tomatoes into the veg, season again, then place the sausages on top and return to the oven to cook for a further 20 mins until the vegetables are tender.

RATATOUILLE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven for 375˚F (190˚C).
• Slice the eggplant, tomatoes, squash, and zucchini into approximately ¹⁄₁₆-inch (1-mm) rounds, then set aside.
• Make the sauce: Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch (30-cm) oven-safe pan over medium-high heat. Sauté the onion, garlic, and bell peppers until soft, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then add the crushed tomatoes. Stir until the ingredients are fully incorporated. Remove from heat, then add the basil. Stir once more, then smooth the surface of the sauce with a spatula.
• Arrange the sliced veggies in alternating patterns, (for example, eggplant, tomato, squash, zucchini) on top of the sauce from the outer edge to the middle of the pan. Season with salt and pepper.
• Make the herb seasoning: In a small bowl, mix together the basil, garlic, parsley, thyme, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Spoon the herb seasoning over the vegetables.
• Cover the pan with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Uncover, then bake for another 20 minutes, until the vegetables are softened.
• Serve while hot as a main dish or side. The ratatouille is also excellent the next day--cover with foil and reheat in a 350˚F (180˚C) oven for 15 minutes, or simply microwave to desired temperature.
