Roasted Ratatouille

Ratatouille is a great dish year round, whether room temperature at a summer barbecue or piping hot in winter. If making in summer, use fresh tomatoes for a slightly lighter flavour. The addition of a little saffron adds some sunshine to an already great tasting dish. If you would like to turn this into a pasta sauce, add 1 tbsp of our new Risotto Spice Blend, classic Italian Herbs, or Bolognese Seasoning.
