If I fancy ratatouille, and am feeling lazy, I saute some chopped
onions in a pan until softened, throw in chopped eggplants and
zucchini, and stir occasionally until those are a little soft; garlic;
then tomatoes, herbs and seasoning. Simmer very slowly for at least
half an hour; it's nice eaten hot, maybe with some cheese melted over,
and lovely cold, maybe with some balsamic vinegar drizzled over to
change it up a bit. A portion takes 2min to reheat in the microwave. I
tend to make up a huge pot, eat it for 3 or 4 days, then freeze any
leftovers.
