A great dish to celebrate the end of summer and the beginning of autumn! Made with roasted red peppers, this version has a subtle depth to the sauce and overall flavour.
Sauté the onions, then garlic together until the onions are softened. Add the crushed tomatoes, bay leaf and cumin and finally the peppers. Keep the pipérade just under a simmer until the peppers are cooked well and incorporated into the sauce. An optional idea is to pulse the pipérade for a smooth sauce, but I liked the rustic appearance of this. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Remove the bay leaf before layering the bottom of a baking dish with the pipérade.
Slice the vegetables and layer them above the sauce.
Mix together the olive oil topping ingredients. Drizzle the top of your ratatouille with the olive oil topping, and pop it into a 350°F oven until the tips of the eggplant are caramelized and curling, about 1 1/2 hours.

Made this last night for a dinner party. It was delicious – but I had a LOT of piperade. In fact, it was mostly piperade and the veggies all sunk down into it. How do you get the veggies to look so pretty in your picture?

Just made this for lunch for my vegetarian friend. It was really good. I did add more roasted peppers (doubled) just because I really like them. I also tweaked the amount of garlic and thyme to my own taste. Otherwise though I followed the recipe pretty closely. This was very simple and delicious. I could even see serving it over pasta or rice, especially the piperade. Really good and nice for something quick to put together and very healthy.

I made this for my son last night and he loved it. We had to watch the movie while we ate of course!
