RATATOUILLE

Steps:

• Cut stems from eggplant and cucumber, then slice both to about 1/4" thick. Cut larger eggplant pieces in quarters.
• Place eggplants and cucumbers in a bowl, coating all surfaces with salt and set aside for 30 minutes.
• Stir fry eggplants and cucumbers in 3 tablespoons of olive oil for around 5 minutes until slightly brown. Remove from pan and set aside.
• Add the onions, chilies and bell pepper to the pan with the remaining olive oil. Stir fry for around 10 minutes. Clear an open spot in the pan and add garlic with a little salt and pepper. Heat for about a minute while stirring continuously; once the garlic starts to brown, stir in with the other ingredients in the pan.
• Add the tomatoes, cover and cook for 5 minutes.
• Add the reserved eggplants and cucumbers with parsley and cook, covered, for a further 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

AUTHENTIC RATATOUILLE

Steps:

• I n a large pot sauté the onions in olive oil until brown, then add peppers and allow to soften. Stir in whole garlic cloves, tomatoes and bay leaf and turn heat down to a simmer and leave for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a separate pan, sautee eggplant and zucchini (they tend to get mushy if you throw them in with everything else but that can be good too and is easier than dirtying a second pan) until browned and softened.
• Add the zucchini and eggplant to the simmering pot along with the sprigs of thyme and some salt and pepper (to taste) and allow to simmer at least another 20 minutes. Simmer longer if you want the flavors to really get good, or just reheat it the next day and you'll have the same effect.
• Finish out the bay leaf and the whole garlic cloves and serve piping hot with crusty fresh baked bread or basmati rice. Add the minced garlic to the top of each serving.
