Rattatouille. There is something about it that just tickles my taste buds and makes me feel all warm inside. We usually grow a glut of courgettes in our garden so this becomes one of our courgette loving dishes and because it freezes well I always make a large batch. I know there are hundreds of variations on a theme out there, so here is just my usual variation.
It’s a low fat recipe but packed full of veggies, so counts for 2-3 of your 5 a day 🙂
We serve our with either rice or pasta as a main meal, it also works well as a side dish to go alongside meat and fish.
