Former recipes, ratatouille of La Mancha.




A very ancient recipe from farmers from Castilla - La Mancha (Spain) based on vegetables.

Its basic ingredients are onions, garlic, zucchinis, tomatoes and green and red peppers (eggplant is optional).

Ratatouille recipe of Provence (France) also uses eggplant and is flavored with Provence Herbs (a mixture of dried herbs like oregano, rosemary, thyme, basil,tarragon, among other herbs).  Sometimes, I also use the eggplant with the other ingredients.

It is prepared in a very simple way; in a skillet sauté, one by one, the diced ingredients in the extra virgin olive oil. Season with salt to taste. Let  it sauté over a low heat in its own juice. 

The ratatouille of La Mancha served with whole-grain rice becomes a dish with a high nutritional value.
