ROASTED RATATOUILLE = THE BEST RATATOUILLE
This is adapted from Food52 Vegan by Gena Hamshaw. Use this recipe as a guide: It's best to use a balanced mix of vegetables, but the roasting process is forgiving. For instance, I've made this with and without zucchini; I've used a mix of vegetables that leans heavy on the eggplant at times and heavy on the tomatoes at others. I've used all sorts of peppers, tomatoes, eggplant, etc. Also, I often make a quadruple (or more!) recipe, so don't be afraid to load up your largest roasting pan. The key is to be patient with the roasting. Let the vegetables cook until the liquids reduce, and the mixture becomes thick and stewy. When I double/triple/quadruple the recipe, I scale the dressing as needed. When my roasting pan is completely loaded, I use 1 cup olive oil and 1/2 cup white balsamic vinegar (or 1/2 cup olive oil and 1/4 cup vinegar), and I cook the vegetables for 3 hours. Also, I often omit the thyme altogether: I simply season each layer of vegetables with salt as I add them to the pan. Then once all of the vegetables are in, I pour over the olive oil and white balsamic vinegar. After 1 hour, I stir it; then I stir it again every hour after that until it has roasted for 3 hours total.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400° F.
- In a large roasting pan or casserole, combine the tomatoes, eggplant, zucchini, peppers, onion, shallot, and garlic. Note: I add the vegetables to the pan as I finish chopping them, and sprinkle each layer of vegetables lightly with salt.
- In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, thyme, and 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Pour over the vegetables. Toss to coat. Season with pepper. (Alternatively: If you've seasoned each layer of vegetables generously with salt, simply pour the olive oil and vinegar over the vegetables. As noted above, I omit the thyme.)
- Bake for 30 minutes, then stir well. Bake for another 30 to 45 minutes (or longer, especially if you've increased the quantities: if my roasting pan is really loaded, I roast the vegetables for 3 hours, stirring once every hour, until the juices really begin to reduce/thicken) until the vegetables are all very tender and the released juices are beginning to thicken. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper as desired.
- To serve, spoon over toast or toss with cooked pasta, grated parmesan, finely chopped basil and enough of the reserved pasta cooking liquid to make a nice sauce.

Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallion whites, zucchini, eggplant and red pepper flakes.

Cover and cook until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and top with the scallion greens and the remaining 1/2 cup basil.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Melt the butter in small pot over low heat, then add the 2 cloves of chopped garlic. Let the garlic bubble for 2 minutes. In a medium bowl add the bread, 1 teaspoon dried herbes or thyme, about 1/3 palmful and the cheese. Drizzle the garlic butter over the bread mixture and arrange the croutons on parchment lined baking sheet. Bake until golden and evenly brown, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool. Croutons may be stored in an airtight container for a couple of days in a cool place.
- Salt the eggplant and drain it in a colander for30 minutes to remove the bitterness from the eggplant.
- Meanwhile, blacken the skins of the red peppers over open flame on the stove or under a hot boiler. If broiling, leave the oven ajar to allow the steam to escape. Put the blackened peppers in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let cool. Peel, seed and dice the peppers.
- While peppers cool, heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat with extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan. Add the eggplant, zucchini, remaining sliced garlic, onions, rosemary and remaining 1 teaspoon of herbes or dried thyme. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then cover the pot and cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Crush the tomatoes by hand and add them to the pot. Stir in the red peppers and 1/2 tomato-can of water and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes to concentrate the flavors. Cool and store for a make-ahead meal.
- To serve, bring the ratatouille back to a simmer over medium heat, covered, then uncover and stir in the balsamic vinegar. Make 4 nests or wells in the ratatouille and crack an egg into each nest. Cover the pot and cook the eggs to desired doneness, about 2 to 5 minutes. Scoop the ratatouille and eggs into shallow bowls and top with croutons and torn basil.

- Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- Season the zucchini, squash, bell pepper and onion with the olive oil and some salt and pepper. Grill until grill marks appear and the vegetables are slightly tender but still a little al dente, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into bite-size pieces.

ROASTED RATATOUILLE
Ratatouille is usually a savoury vegetable stew cooked on top-of-the-stove ... but roasting in the oven intensifies the flavours. For a main course, serve this with salad and crusty bread. (I enjoy it on top of shredded lettuce with a dollop of yogurt cheese.) The recipe comes from Bonnie Stern's MORE HEARTSMART COOKING.

Tips:
- Choose ripe, in-season vegetables. This will ensure the best flavor and texture. Avoid any vegetables that are bruised or damaged.
- Cut the vegetables evenly. This will help them cook evenly. If the vegetables are different sizes, the larger ones may not be cooked through by the time the smaller ones are done.
- Use a good quality olive oil. This will help to enhance the flavor of the vegetables.
- Season the vegetables generously with salt and pepper. This will help to bring out their natural flavors.
- Roast the vegetables at a high temperature. This will help to caramelize the vegetables and give them a nice crispy texture.
- Don't overcrowd the vegetables on the baking sheet. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Roast the vegetables until they are tender and slightly browned. This will take about 30 minutes, depending on the type of vegetables you are using.
- Serve the vegetables immediately. They can be served as a side dish or as a main course.
Conclusion:
Ratatouille is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up summer vegetables, and it is also a healthy and affordable meal. With a little planning and effort, you can make a delicious ratatouille that your family and friends will love.
