How to Prepare Ratatouille Soup with Farro [Vegan]
- In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon (15 mL) olive oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the eggplant and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon (1 mL) salt and 1/8 teaspoon (0.5 mL) black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggplant is browned on all sides, about 6 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the eggplant to a bowl.
- In a large saucepan, heat the remaining 2 tbsp (30 mL) olive oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the zucchini, squash and bell pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 7 minutes. Add the cabbage, farro, vegetable broth, water, diced tomatoes (with juice), apple cider vinegar, thyme, bay leaves and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon (1 mL) salt and 1/8 teaspoon (0.5 mL) black pepper; stir to combine. Increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the flavors meld, about 30 minutes. Remove the bay leaves and discard.
- Ladle 1 3/4 cups (425 mL) soup into each of 8 bowls. Spoon about 1⁄2 teaspoon (2 mL) capers into the center of each soup. Serve warm.
