Ratatouille in the Thermomix

To make a good and authentic ratatouille in the Thermomix, you need good vegetables that have already seen the earth, the sun, and as few pesticides as possible. Keep the skin on, so it's better to buy organic. The common ingredients in any respectable ratatouille are zucchini, eggplant, tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, and olive oil, often with garlic and a bouquet garni. In Nice, olives are often added as well. Ratatouille is originally a culinary specialty from Nice and Provence. Originally, the word "ratatouille" in 1778 referred to a heterogeneous stew of several foods. The abbreviation "rata" in military slang refers to a mixture of beans and potatoes, and later various vegetables, bread, and fatty meat. Rata is indeed the basic military mess, simple and quick to prepare. Ratatouille is usually served as a side dish, but it can also be served as a main dish, accompanied by rice or bread. Tip: For preparation in the Thermomix, do not cut the pieces too small (the recommended size is about 2 to 3 centimeters) and they should all be roughly the same size.
