Ratatouille is a traditional French dish which packs plenty of vegetables into a tasty meal for the entire family to enjoy. This rustic recipe will serve four, is ready in about 40 minutes and packs in a massive 4 of your 5-a-day quota for fruit and veg! **What you'll need** -------------------- 4 large tomatoes 2 peppers 4 courgettes 2 aubergines 1 diced onion 3 garlic cloves Olive oil Basil Sugar **How to cook it** ------------------ * Prepare your vegetables by chopping your aubergines, courgettes and peppers into bite size chunks. * Quarter your tomatoes and scrape out the seeds before roughly chopping into smaller pieces. * Heat a heavy bottomed sauté pan over a medium flame and then add a large glug of olive oil. * Brown your aubergines, courgettes and peppers on each side for 5 minutes or until soft. **TIP** - Be careful not to overcook the vegetables at this stage. * Remove the vegetables from the pan and set aside for later. Add in a little more oil if required and cook the onion and garlic for 5 minutes. * Stir in a handful of basil, a pinch of sugar and your tomatoes and allow to cook for a minute. * Return your vegetables to the pan and cook for a further 5 minutes. **TIP** - now's the time to add a little salt and pepper to your meal if required. * After 5 minutes of cooking it's time to dish up and enjoy! **Spice things up a little** ---------------------------- If you would like to create your own version of this traditional ratatouille dish why not add some chicken, chilli and fresh noodles for a modern twist on a French classic.
