Ratatouille.
I checked out a sneak preview of Ratatouille last night, and I must say I truly loved this movie. Everything from the animation to the score to the voice acting to the story (and especially the story). In the hilarious new animated-adventure, Ratatouille, a rat named Remy dreams of becoming a great chef despite his family's wishes and the obvious problem of being a rat in a decidedly rodent-phobic. Название: Ratatouille.

Ratatouille step by step
-
Slice eggplant and place in single layer on paper towels.
-
Salt each slice thoroughly.
-
After several minutes, flip slices and salt top side again.
-
Heat olive oil in large skillet.
-
Wipe liquid off slices and dice eggplant.
-
Add eggplant to hot oil over medium heat.
-
Dice onion and add to pan. Cook a few minutes.
-
I like to use a variety of colored bell peppers (like red, orange and yellow) just to make it pretty. Use whatever you have.
-
Dice peppers, add to pan and cook a few minutes.
-
Dice zucchini, add to pan.
-
Add seasoning.
-
Mince garlic and add to pan.
-
I use pasta sauce instead of fresh tomatoes because I don't like the skin and I usually have a jar of sauce open.
-
Add sauce and cook til heated through.
-
Adjust seasoning.
-
If you make a large batch, you may have to cook the veggies in stages. Just add oil to the pan each time and divide the seasoning and sauce as evenly as you can.
-
Serve warm or room temperature. I like to serve this with a garlic brown rice and quinoa medley..
-
It is very filling, but if you feel you must have meat, a honey mustard chicken goes great with it.
