Classic delicious, rustic ratatouille recipe, which makes a perfect side to meat or as a vegetarian main if served with some crumbly feta and crusty bread.

1. Preheat the oven to 220°C/gas mark 7.

2. Peel the onion, cut into quarters and then cut each quarter lengthways again. Roughly chop the remaining vegetables to a similar size and place into a large bowl with the onion.

3. Pour over the olive oil, add the garlic and use your hands to mix thoroughly. Spread out the vegetables in a roasting tray and season with salt and pepper.

4. Place the roasting tray in the oven. Once the vegetables have started to colour, around 10-15 min, add the tomato and basil.

5. Mix well and return to the oven for a further 20 min, or until the vegetables are well coloured but remain reasonably crunchy in texture.

6. Remove from the oven, season to taste and serve.

Enjoy!
