Steemit Iron Chef 2017 #04 : A different kind of Ratatouille
This is my first time to contribute to the #steemit-ironchef challenge. I am very curious how everything works out. But anyway it inspired me to make a delicious and also beautiful dish for yesterday's dinner. My mom asked "Artwork?" when I sent her a photo and the hubby kissed my hands afterwards. He said it was a feast for the mouth and the eyes. So what else do I want? I got an amazing award already. 😊
These are the things I used:
Green and yellow zucchini, an eggplant, tomatoes, thyme, olive oil and seasalt and pepper for the veggies part ...
... and one block of tofu, one onion, garlic, chopped green olives, tomato paste, herbs and spices, some miso paste to add the umami flavor, seasalt and some vegetable oil for the sauce.
That is the result after preparing everything and before baking.
And thats how it looked like after it came out of the ofen - a hot and steamy deliciousness.
I served it with couscous and here you can see what happened to it after we attacked it with our forks and spoons ... 😋
(I almost forgot to add the date and name! That's another reason for this photo ... 🙃)
Thank you @progressivechef for this fantastic challenge! It was much fun to take part! 👩🏼🍳
🍽 If anybody has questions how to join this contest, here are the rules again. Does anybody would like to get the complete recipe? I offer to post the step by step preparation if needed. This would be a pleasure to me. ☀️

Absolutely not convinced this is what I'm thinking of I want but you posted this as I planned homemade ratatouille for today.
My first travails here on steemit and you have my first and third upvote. I guess a follow is next. 👌
Very welcome here on steemit, dear @fknmayhem!
Funny coincidence! But no! This wasn't a regular ratatouille! 😆
What things are you planning to post about? I guess, you'll love it. I recommend to write an introduction post. Some people get real good upvotes from other members. Mine was not so interesting, I guess ... 😝
By the way, I still feel like a newbe sometimes. I started in june ... but still soo much to discover!

STOPI love Ratatouille. Its my go to comfort food.
Gorgeous! What a great entry - well done!
I have made an unofficial post here picking out my top three entries for this week, and you are one of them!
Please note that has no impact on the actual winners 😝
Wow! Really?!! I feel absolutely honored! Thank you so much! This is as good as a reward! That made my day and gave me a grin from one ear to the other! 😄
It was a really lovely dish! You deserved those kisses
Oh my goodness, absolutely exquisite Dear @pusteblume. Definitely something I must try. I wish I have some right now. All the best with the CONTACTS dear 🌸💖🌸
Thank you tons! 😘
You made a spiral ratatouille!!!! It looks like a piece of artwork! I just love it and would love to know how you do it!!!! :))
Thank you! I am happy, you like it! 😊
Not your average run of the mill Ratatouille! It looks amazing! It is a work of art. Every day we cook for our families and they eat it. But how often do you get your hands kissed? lol
Hehehe! Not every day! If you are told, "No! No! Yes, I like it! It tastes, uhm ... different! Interesting!" - Then ... ... you shouldn't do this dish again! 😆
But thankfully yesterday both things turned out well: the look AND the taste. Whew!
The "it tastes different" and "oh, that's interesting" means don't serve that slop again! lol
Correct! 🙈🙊
@pusteblume great pictures i feel hungry already!
Thank you! ☺️ But if you are hungry already I admit to cook anything else. This one takes a little 😉
Spaghetti maybe? Oh, now I am hungry too!
Lol
That spiral Ratatouille looks delicious! It reminds me of my Ratatouille Tian. I prefer making Ratatouille this way rather than the classic version. I find the taste better if the veggies are cut very thinly. Good luck for the contest! :-)
Thank you for your good wishes! It's very welcomed!
And yes, those two dishes loke like siblings! What a coincidence! Yours is gorgeous!
