Lori's ratatouille

4 Servings

Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
2mediumsOnions -- sliced
2Garlic clove minced
¼cupCooking oil
2smallsZucchinis -- in 1/2\" slices
3mediumsTomatoes -- diced
1smallEggplant, peeled -- cut in
1\" cubes
1largeGreen pepper -- cut in
Strips
2tablespoonsChopped fresh parsley
2teaspoonsSalt
½teaspoonBasil leaves -- dried
(try fresh if you have it!)
teaspoonPepper
(we use the hot stuff!)

Directions

Saute onions and garlic in hot oil in heavy skillet, but do not brown. Add remaining ingredients. Cover and cook 15 minutes. Uncover and cook another 40 minutes until vegetables are tender and juice is thickened. I have made this countless times and the thing about it, is you can vary it according to whatever is in the garden. Experiment with it. I have even found that okra is a great addition. If you don't have zucchini, try the yellow squash, or a mixture of the two works great! Enjoy and have fun! (But never leave out the basil!) Lori Recipe By : Habanero99
