To bring out the best flavors, cook the eggplant, zucchini, and bell peppers separately in olive oil until tender. This step helps maintain texture and prevents sogginess.
Add the sautéed vegetables back into the pan with the tomatoes, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Stir gently and let everything simmer on low heat for about 20–30 minutes, until the flavors meld beautifully.
Sprinkle fresh basil over the ratatouille before serving.
Serving Suggestions:
- Serve ratatouille as a hearty side to grilled meats or fish

- Use it as a filling for savory crepes or pasta
- Enjoy it warm or at room temperature as a light lunch
