Ingredients
- 1 eggplant chopped into 1/2-inch cubes, large
- kosher salt
- 5 tablespoons olive oil divided, plus more to taste
- 1 onion chopped, large, yellow
- 2 red bell pepper seeds removed and chopped
- 6 cloves garlic finely chopped
- 2 zucchini chopped into 1/2-inch cubes, small
- 6 tomato chopped into 1/2-inch cubes, ripe medium
- 1 teaspoon thyme dried
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes crushed
- 1/4 cup basil chopped, fresh
- salt to taste, kosher salt and freshly ground
- black pepper to taste, kosher salt and freshly ground
Instructions
- First, sprinkle the eggplant with salt, about 1 teaspoon, and let it sit in a colander or bowl while you prepare the other vegetables.
- When you have all the vegetables ready to go, heat a large pot over medium-high heat on the stove. Add 2 tablespoons of olive to the hot pan and stir in the eggplant. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggplant is softened and browned, about 8 to 10 minutes. If you have to add a little more olive oil, you can. Remove the eggplant from the pot and set aside.
- Add the additional 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Stir in the onion and peppers and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for a minute or two, stirring, making sue the garlic doesn’t brown. Add zucchini and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, dried thyme, and crushed red pepper flakes.
- Turn the heat to low and let the vegetables cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the eggplant and cook for 5 to 10 more minutes or until vegetables are soft. Stir in the basil and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Drizzle with additional olive oil and garnish with extra basil and Parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve with crusty bread, pasta, polenta, eggs, or enjoy plain.
Notes
- Ratatouille will keep in a container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
