There are different ways to make Ratatouille and also there are different recipes for Ratatouille. You can make it with the different type of vegetables. Most of the Ratatouille recipes are using the tomatoes has a base. Some purist will cook all the ingredients separately. Then they will add them together into a pot. They will finish cooking them very slowly in order to get a very smooth texture. Like any of my recipes, I adapt it to fit my taste. I also cook it differently in order to get a very deep flavor of my chosen ingredients. That is why I came up with this recipe and in this article, I will explain how to make Ratatouille-Bruschetta. I love it because it mixes two of my favorite dish. I hope you will like it too.
According to Wikipedia; Rollatini (sometimes also spelled rollatini or rolletini or Involtini) is an Italian-style dish that is usually made with thin slices of eggplant, which are dusted in wheat flour or lightly breaded and covered with ricotta and often other cheeses and seasonings, then rolled up and baked. Alternatively, veal, chicken, or fish may be used in place of the eggplant. I prefer eggplants because it’s my favorite vegetable.
It is a ball of ground meat, fish or vegetables. It is covered with flour or breadcrumbs and then fried in oil.
Easy. You can make any kind of Polpette, as long as you have enough imagination and you know how to pair ingredients. The sky is the limit! My kids love meatballs, but since I am trying to be a good mom, I am reinventing recipes to make my kids eat more vegetables. So I decided to make meatballs without meat for my kids! LOL
Did it ever happen to you that you want to eat something new but you don’t know what? Well, that happened to me the other day. I looked into the caverns of my fridge and found two poor zucchinis and one big eggplant screaming at me, “WE NEED TO BE EATEN AND SOON!”. So I came up with the idea to create a vessel to rescue my poor vegetables. I based this tasty eggplant recipe on one of my favorite dishes called Rollatini. If you are looking for a vegetarian recipe that tastes great, this is it.
