Question

Answer 1

Ratatouille is a classic stewed vegetable dish that comes from the French. So YES!! :)

Answer 2

It is real and it has been around for quite  a while.

http://allrecipes.com/recipe/ratatouille... is one recipe for it.

Answer 3

I am guessing you meant ratatouille. It is a real dish made of vegetables, just like the movie. My recipe has mushroom, tomato, zucchini, onion, and eggplant, all sliced thinly. Saute some garlic in olive oil, add eggplant. Layer on the bottom of a greased casserole dish, sprinkle some Parmesan cheese and salt. then layer the rest of the veggies, alternating with the parmesan and salt. Bake 35 mins in 375 degrees oven. Enjoy.

Answer 4

Yup, it's real.  The recipes given by other 'answers' are good and more straight forward than the version made by the cinematic rat, Remy!  Remy spectacular recipe was found by AP,  Remy's adviser was Thomas Keller of the French Laundry!!

Movie recipe for ratatouille

By The Associated Press

Who says rats can’t cook?

Here is Remy’s ratatouille recipe, from the movie with the same name as the dish, courtesy of Thomas Keller.

Unlike traditional ratatouilles, this recipe calls for layering vegetables in a spiral on top of a piperade. You could also layer the vegetables in stripes, if you find that easier.

CONFIT BYALDI (or, Remy’s Ratatouille)

Start to finish: 3 1/2 hours, 1 hour active

Servings: 4

For the piperade (bottom layer):

1/2 red bell pepper, seeds and ribs removed

1/2 yellow bell pepper, seeds and ribs removed

1/2 orange bell pepper, seeds and ribs removed

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon minced garlic

1/2 cup finely diced yellow onion

3 tomatoes (about 12 ounces total weight), peeled, seeded and finely diced, juices reserved

1 sprig fresh thyme

1 sprig flat-leaf parsley

1/2 a bay leaf

Kosher salt

For the vegetables:

1 medium zucchini (4 to 5 ounces) sliced in 1/16-inch-thick rounds

1 Japanese eggplant (4 to 5 ounces) sliced into 1/16-inch-thick rounds

1 yellow (summer) squash (4 to 5 ounces) sliced into 1/16-inch-thick rounds

4 Roma tomatoes, sliced into 1/16-inch-thick rounds

1/2 teaspoon minced garlic

2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil

1/8 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

For the vinaigrette:

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar

Assorted fresh herbs (such as thyme flowers, chervil, thyme)

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Special equipment: Oven-proof skillet

To make the piperade, preheat oven to 450 F. Line a baking sheet with foil.

Place pepper halves on the baking sheet, cut side down. Roast until the skins loosen, about 15 minutes. Remove the peppers from the oven and let rest until cool enough to handle. Reduce the oven temperature to 275 F.

Peel the peppers and discard the skins. Finely chop the peppers, then set aside.

In medium skillet over low heat, combine oil, garlic and onion and saute until very soft but not browned, about 8 minutes.

Add the tomatoes, their juices, thyme, parsley and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer over low heat and cook until very soft and little liquid remains, about 10 minutes. Do not brown.

Add the peppers and simmer to soften them. Discard the herbs, then season to taste with salt. Reserve a tablespoon of the mixture, then spread the remainder over the bottom of an 8-inch oven-proof skillet.

To prepare the vegetables, you will arrange the sliced zucchini, eggplant, squash and tomatoes over the piperade in the skillet.

Begin by arranging 8 alternating slices of vegetables down the center, overlapping them so that 1/4 inch of each slice is exposed. This will be the center of the spiral. Around the center strip, overlap the vegetables in a close spiral that lets slices mound slightly toward center. All vegetables may not be needed. Set aside.

In a small bowl, mix the garlic, oil and thyme, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle this over vegetables.

Cover the skillet with foil and crimp edges to seal well. Bake until the vegetables are tender when tested with a paring knife, about 2 hours. Uncover and bake for another 30 minutes. (Lightly cover with foil if it starts to brown.)

If there is excess liquid in pan, place it over medium heat on stove until reduced. (At this point it may be cooled, covered and refrigerated for up to 2 days. Serve cold or reheat in 350 F oven until warm.)

To make the vinaigrette, in a small bowl whisk together the reserved piperade, oil, vinegar, herbs, and salt and pepper to taste.

To serve, heat the broiler and place skillet under it until lightly browned. Slice in quarters and lift very carefully onto plate with an offset spatula. Turn spatula 90 degrees as you set the food down, gently fanning the food into fan shape. Drizzle the vinaigrette around plate.

Answer 5

Ratatouille is a hearty mixture of tomatoes, onions, zucchini, eggplant, and red and green bell peppers that is cooked with olive oil, thyme and garlic to create a sweet and chunky French  vegetable stew.



4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

3 tomatoes—roughly chopped

2 red onions—halved, thinly sliced and separated into rings

2 zucchini  sliced into ½-inch rounds

1 eggplant  roughly chopped

1 red pepper  roughly chopped

1 green pepper  roughly chopped

1½ teaspoons salt

¾ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

3 cloves garlic—finely chopped

¾ teaspoon dried thyme



Heat the oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Add all ingredients, except the garlic and thyme, and cook, uncovered, for 25 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme and cook, uncovered, for a further 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes, until the vegetables are very soft.

Serving suggestions: Ratatouille is delicious served hot or cold as a side dish with grilled fish or chicken, or used as a filling for a Provençal-style omelet. It can also be served as a meal on its own with some crusty bread or rice.
