Ratatouille Niçoise
What a goof! Courgettes are Zucchini squash.
We normally just get this in cans, but this is pretty easy, so...
Ingredients:
2 Courgettes
3 Tomatoes (or a 14 oz can of diced tomatoes)
1 Medium Onion
1 Green & Red Pepper
2 tsp Garlic
Olive oil
Salt & pepper
1 Bay leaf
Instructions:
Peel the courgettes, tomatoes and onions. Halve the peppers and remove
the stalk and seeds. Cut all the vegetables
into bite sized pieces. (The vegetables are fried separately
in olive oil over a medium to high heat.) Start with the
onions and then the peppers. Once golden brown, combine together
into one pan and continue to cook slowly, but do NOT cover with a
lid. Add the bay leaf, salt and pepper (according to your taste).
Cook the courgettes, then the tomatoes with the crushed garlic.
Serve warm, as a main course or with meat or fish.
This dish can also be served cold and is especially nice in summer.
