Because of covid-19, we stayed home most of the time. We go to the supermarket every 7-10 days and get everything we need until we run out of fresh food again. We still have some vegetables in our fridge, and we need to start finishing it before they turn bad. So why not making this classic french vegetarian recipe? It’s actually not that difficult to make but just need some chopping time and have the patience to line up the cut vegetables nicely.
Since we are making this for two people only, we don’t want to make too much. If you have a big family, you definitely can scale this up easily. Just keep taking turns when you are lining up the vegetables. These are also the vegetables we have at home at that time. It’s also quite common to use squash for this dish too. This is such a beautiful dish to make and also healthy for the body. Definitely something we would make it again when we would like to have a healthy easy meal!
By the way, in case you don’t remember, there’s also a Disney movie with the little mouse called Ratatouille! Have you ever watched it? That’s also how we learned about this dish!
