French Ratatouille

 "Ingredients:

- 1 eggplant 

- 1 zucchini

- 1 red bell pepper

- 1 yellow bell pepper

- 1 onion

- 2 cloves of garlic

- 4 ripe tomatoes

- 4 sprigs of fresh thyme

- 1 bay leaf

- 1/2 cup of olive oil

- Salt and pepper

- Parsley to garnish

Directions:

1. Cut the eggplant and zucchini into 1-inch chunks. De-seed the peppers and cut into 1-inch chunks. Peel and chop the onion and garlic. Core the tomatoes and chop roughly.

2. Heat half of the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the eggplant and zucchini, season with salt and pepper, and cook until golden brown and tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from the pot and set aside.

3. In the same pot, add the remaining oil, then add the onion, garlic, and peppers. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

4. Add the tomatoes, thyme, and bay leaf to the pot. Cook until the tomatoes break down and the peppers are cooked, about 10 minutes.

5. Add the cooked eggplant and zucchini back into the pot, stir well, and cook for another 5 minutes. Adjust the seasoning if necessary.

6. Garnish with parsley before serving. 

The total cooking time is approximately 30 minutes.
