I ended up using this one.
I don't own a madoline, so there was much cutting. Claire better know I love her after this:
Then we tried to serve it like the movie. Here is the servings for M and I with goat cheese on top. We didn't add that on Claire's serving. Because she doesn't understand that goat cheese makes EVERYTHING better:
This was SO delicious. Too bad Claire didn't think so. She tasted one microscopic bite and announced, "I don't like ratatouille. It's gross."
But... but... it's from the movie!!! And you helped make it.
I'm out of tips for getting her to eat her veggies like an actual cultured human being. Time to start pureeing zucchini into her brownies or something I guess.
Oh well, I shall continue fantasizing about this dish no matter what Claire thought. I'll be eating it again just as soon as I can find a
That is a work of ART! It looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteLooks great, Gretchen! Just like the movie. They had some well known chef come up with a way to make it look gourmet. I think you did a fantastic job... almost makes me want to try!
ReplyDeleteHaha, I think I saw a recipe somewhere online where you put avacado in chocolate mousse.
ReplyDeleteYour blog makes me laugh.
That looks incredible!!! I have a mandoline....by the way.
ReplyDeleteI too have a mandoline, and I am the furthest thing from a cook/chef.... why don't you have one?
ReplyDeletewow, that looks so beautiful...nice presentation! Stacy L. just made this for her family because her son requested it after the movie and hers was a type of soup. Ask her.
ReplyDeleteNice presentation. Sounds like you might need to scour any remaining wedding gifts left at your parents house. Surely you registered for a Mandoline! Just kidding. Maybe if M likes that dish so well he'll buy you one?
ReplyDeleteGORGEOUS! i am so proud of you for doing all that, BY HAND none the less. too bad she didn't go for it right?
ReplyDeleteWhat dedicated momma! You're awesome G!
ReplyDeletehahaha, I love that... more proof that Claire is your daughter!. I totally want to try the recipe now... thanks!
