Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- For the crust: Combine cornmeal, flour, and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse to incorporate. Add butter and oil and pulse about 20 times, until mixture resembles small pebbles. You can also do this by hand, using a pastry cutter to cut the butter in, or the two-knife method.
- Add water and pulse (or stir with a wooden spoon) until mixture forms a loose dough.
- Remove dough from processor (or bowl) and press into the bottom and about 1/8-inch up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan with a detachable rim (or a springform pan).
- Press aluminum foil into the bottom and sides of the pan on top of the dough and weigh down with uncooked rice, raw beans, or pie weights.
- Place tart pan on a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and remove rice (or beans or pie weights) and foil. Return to oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until no longer shiny and wet. Remove from oven and let cool.
- Increase the oven to 400 degrees F.
- For the filling: Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat; saute shallots until soft, about 5 to 6 minutes.
- Line 2 baking trays with aluminum foil, and spray with cooking spray.
- Arrange the eggplant, zucchini, and tomato slices on the trays in a single layer and brush with the remaining olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, and roast the vegetables until soft but not browned, about 15 minutes.
- Remove the vegetables from oven and cool.
- Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Lay the eggplant slices in 2 layers on the bottom of tart; cover with 1/3 of the mozzarella cheese and some of the shredded basil.
- Add the zucchini and shallots, top with another 1/3 of the mozzarella and basil, then the tomatoes.
- Top with rest of the mozzarella cheese and the Parmesan.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until cheese is melted and vegetables have further wilted.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Combine lentils through rosemary in a 3qt saucepan. Bring to a simmer, cover & cook on low 20 minutes.
- Put prepared vegetables on roasting pans (I need 3 of them - 1 for eggplant, 1 for tomatoes, zucchini & onions, 1 for peppers & garlic). Sprinkle evenly with crushed rosemary then drizzle with olive oil, coating vegetables well.
- Roast for 20 minutes. Check for doneness - they should be browned lightly & softened. If not quite ready, leave them in until they are. When done, remove from oven & sprinkle lightly & evenly with kosher salt.
- Check lentils: they should be cooked but not mushy. If there is still a lot of liquid, uncover & turn heat up. You want enough liquid to be saucy not soupy. On the drier side is ok, just be careful not to scorch them.
- Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and enjoy.
Tips:
- Choose ripe, fresh vegetables: The quality of your vegetables will greatly impact the final dish, so make sure to select ripe, fresh produce. Look for vegetables that are brightly colored and free of blemishes.
- Cut the vegetables evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly. If you are using a mandoline, be careful to use the safety guard.
- Don't overcrowd the baking dish: The vegetables need room to roast properly, so don't overcrowd the baking dish. If necessary, use two baking dishes.
- Roast the vegetables at a high temperature: This will help to caramelize the vegetables and give them a delicious flavor. Aim for a temperature of 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Stir the vegetables occasionally: This will help to ensure that they cook evenly. Stir the vegetables every 10-15 minutes.
- Season the vegetables with herbs and spices: This will add flavor and depth to the dish. Some good options include garlic, thyme, rosemary, and paprika.
- Serve the ratatouille hot or cold: Ratatouille can be served hot as a main course or side dish, or cold as a salad. It is also a great addition to sandwiches and wraps.
Conclusion:
Ratatouille is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It is a great way to use up fresh vegetables, and it is also a healthy and affordable meal. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make a delicious ratatouille that your family and friends will love.
