What Is Ratatouille?

Ratatouille is one of France’s best-loved traditional vegetable dishes, originating in the sunny region of Provence.

Fresh Mediterranean vegetables are gently slow-cooked with olive oil and herbs until they become beautifully soft, allowing their natural sweetness to blend into a rich, rustic dish that’s both comforting and remarkably versatile.

Simple ingredients.

Exceptional flavour.

That’s the secret of authentic French cooking.

What Does It Taste Like?

Expect wonderfully rich Mediterranean flavours.

The ripe tomatoes provide gentle sweetness, the aubergines and courgettes become meltingly soft, while peppers and onions add natural depth and complexity.

The result is a beautifully balanced vegetable dish that’s hearty enough to enjoy on its own yet versatile enough to accompany almost anything.

Unlike many commercially produced versions, this tastes genuinely fresh, natural and homemade.
