Ratatouille
Recipe courtesy Emeril Lagasse

Ingredients
1/4 cup olive oil, plus more as needed
1 1/2 cups small diced yellow onion
1 teaspoon minced garlic
2 cups medium diced eggplant, skin on
1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
1 cup diced green bell peppers
1 cup diced red bell peppers
1 cup diced zucchini squash
1 cup diced yellow squash
1 1/2 cups peeled, seeded and chopped tomatoes
1 tablespoon thinly sliced fresh basil leaves

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions
Set a large 12-inch saute pan over medium heat and add
the olive oil. Once hot, add the onions and garlic to the pan. Cook the onions,
stirring occasionally, until they are wilted and lightly caramelized, about 5 to 7
minutes. Add the eggplant and thyme to the pan and continue to cook, stirring
occasionally, until the eggplant is partially cooked, about 5 minutes. Add the
green and red peppers, zucchini, and squash and continue to cook for an additional
5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, basil, parsley, and salt and pepper, to taste, and
cook for a final 5 minutes. Stir well to blend and serve either hot or at room
temperature.
