Traditional French Ratatouille? Do it yourself! With this easy-to-follow recipe | A Typical Dish

Ratatouille is made only from vegetables and is said to have been served for the first time in the 18th century, in Nice, Southern France. We travelled to Provence to meet Viktorija Todorovska. She works at cooking school Les Petits Farcis and shows you how to prepare traditional ratatouille.

Finally! 'Pre-Pixar' Ratatouille! ✊😤

[Irowthex]

Perfect. So many chef’s overdo ratatouille - for me it is a simple prep. that uses vegetables when there are an abundance or even over abundance. Cut them up, saute them, make a simple tomato sauce and done. Good evoo, and then I like mine with parsley and finished with Parmesan and crusty bread.

I've been making Ratatouille served with rice for the last 10 years from my family and they loved it

In Spain we have the Mancha pisto and the Catalan sanfaina, very similar to ratatouille

[BufordAckley]

Lets all accept the fact she didn’t make the Ratatouille. Her pet Rat did

[Mustafiz]

I have done both the Pixar and this version, and I prefer this.

[Alouette_EXE]

That is exactly what Ego's mom made for him in his flashback!

[igniortix]

Amazing video! Amazing recipe! I loved it. Thank you

I recently finished an Anthony Bourdain episode where he had gone to Provence and made ratatouille that looks exactly like this. And then he was told, "it's nicely cooked vegetables, but it wasn't ratatouille." So which is it?😂

Regardless, this is far simpler than I thought it was. And so healthful. It would be lovely to make now, but with perfect vegetables in the summer, wow 🤤

In Egypt we have a similar dish only we add garlic to the recipe

Would white Zucchini (which is just a light green Zucchini) be a better option then a regular Zucchini if you can't find the trumpet?

[yolandagrabowski]

Looks delicious. And look like my mom. ❤

Reminds me of a Mexican dish made with tomato, onion, garlic, zucchini, peppers, and squash. I think I’ll start calling it Mexitouille. :) I think the only difference is it uses squash instead of eggplant and the pepper isn’t sweet. It’s a little bit spicy, long, and yellow but I don’t remember the name. It’s been a long time. I used to put a sprig of cilantro last 10 mins but I don’t know anyone else who did. Also, when served, sometimes queso fresco is crumbled on top. Bet it’s an adaptation of the actual ratatouille .

I made it! and it turned out perfect! The recipe in the Pixar movie is not as good. I tried it before and found that the sliced ​​ingredients placed in that way don't allow the tomato sauce to penetrate better, plus the tomato slices add extra acidity. This version is much better.

[LondonEE]

Am I missing something? I thought there would be a written recipe somewhere.

[Claudine-vjho]

Thats the one i grew up with in France.

Americans make this dish with way too much sauce and they over cooked vegetables. This looks fantastic. I learned a similar version from Marco Pierre White.

[StellaRojas-sq]

YO LO VI PERO TENIA TRADUCCION AL ESPANOL COMO LA VUELVO A ENCONTRAR PERO EN ESPANOL?.GRACIAS.

[baltousprime]

I so want to pair this with a freshly baked brioche baguette. Maybe even incorporate some grilled chicken breast and smoked sausage (not andouille as my brother has a heat tolerance that makes Cajun food torture to him)

[cesarperez]

I love this video and the recipe. Just dont get how it originated in France considering these ingredients are native to Americas. We've been eating Calabacitas for centuries and similar squash, pepper tomato base dishes for thousands years.
