Air-Fried Italian-Style Ratatouille with Fresh Herbs
Ingredients
  • 1/2 small eggplant, cut into cubes
  • 1 zucchini, cut into cubes
  • 1 medium tomato, cut into cubes
  • 1/2 large yellow bell pepper, cut into cubes
  • 1/2 large red bell pepper, cut into cubes
  • 1/2 onion, cut into cubes
  • 1 fresh cayenne pepper, diced
  • 5 sprigs fresh basil, stemmed and chopped
  • 2 sprigs fresh oregano, stemmed and chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon white wine
  • 1 teaspoon vinegar
Instructions
1
Preheat your air fryer to a high temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
2
Cut the eggplant, zucchini, tomato, bell peppers, and onion into bite-sized pieces. Combine them in a large bowl with cayenne pepper, basil, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix the ingredients thoroughly to ensure they're evenly distributed.
3
Drizzle a generous amount of oil, wine, and vinegar over the vegetable mixture, mixing it well to coat all the pieces.
4
Transfer the vegetable mixture to a baking dish and carefully place it in the air fryer's basket.
5
Cook the vegetables for 8 minutes, then stir them to redistribute the ingredients. Continue cooking for another 8 minutes, stirring again to ensure everything is tender and cooked through.
6
Every 5 minutes, stir the vegetables gently to prevent burning or overcooking. This process should take around 10-15 minutes in total.
7
Once the vegetables are tender, turn off the air fryer and let it remain in a standby mode.
8
Allow the dish to rest for 5 minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to meld together and the vegetables to retain their texture.
