Ratatouille pie

Ratatouille is a delicious vegetable dish from Provence that is great with pasta, polenta, homemade bread, but also as a side dish to meat. It is a real summer dish due to the richness of colors, flavors of various vegetables and spices. In summer, it is often on our menu when we need to consume excess of vegetables from our garden, and the idea to make ratatouille pie came from Jamie Oliver. The combination of crispy baked phyllo, creamy spicy vegetables and soft salty cheese is irresistible. Served with salad can be a main dish.
