Ingredients
  

  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 onion
  • 2 Green Peppers
  • 4-5 Tomatoes
  • 1 Zucchini
  • 1 tsp Sugar
  • Salt
  • Black Pepper
  • Extra virgin olive oil

Instructions
 

  • We start by putting a pot of water on the fire. Prepare the tomatoes by making a cross cut at the base. Bring to a boil, and when it starts to boil put the tomatoes in the boiling water for about 15 - 20 seconds. This way we will peel them more easily.
  • We continue peeling the onion and garlic. Wash the rest of the vegetables and chop them into small cubes. Set aside separating each vegetable.
  • In a frying pan, heat a good splash of oil and start frying the garlic and onion over low heat for 15 minutes. Add the finely chopped bell pepper and cook again for 15 minutes. Finally, add the zucchini and the tomato, finely chopped, season to taste and, with the lid on, let it cook for an hour and a half over low heat. In the meantime, stir from time to time.
    Taste it in case you need to correct the acidity of the tomatoes with a pinch of sugar.
  • After that time, turn up the heat a little and let it cook for 15 minutes more, or until you see that all the water from the vegetables has evaporated.
    Now you have a delicious Manchego ratatouille ready.
