Ingredients

1Yellow zucchini
2eggplants
2Red pointed peppers
5tomatoes

100mlOlive oil
5Garlic cloves
Basil to taste

Preparation

  1. Light the charcoal in the Big Green Egg and heat with the grid to 180°C.
  2. Slice the eggplants, yellow zucchini, and tomatoes into slices about 0.5 centimeters thick.
  3. Cut the stems off the pointed peppers, remove the seeds, and slice the peppers into rings about 0.5 centimeters thick.
  4. Arrange the vegetables alternately in two circles in the Cast Iron Skillet to create a beautiful, overlapping pattern.
  5. For the herb oil, peel the garlic and pick the basil leaves.
  6. Blend the garlic and basil together with the olive oil in a small food processor or with an immersion blender.
  7. Drizzle the herb oil over the vegetables and season with salt and pepper.
  8. Place the skillet on the grid, close the EGG lid, and let the ratatouille stew for about 45 minutes, until the vegetables are tender. During cooking, moisture will be released from the vegetables, allowing them to stew gently without burning.
  9. Remove the skillet from the Big Green Egg and serve the ratatouille immediately, or let it cool to lukewarm for a more Mediterranean serving style.
