directions

Notes

If you can only find thick tahini, thin a small amount with a couple tablespoons of water.

Step 1

In a large pot, combine eggplant, potatoes, onion, garlic, sea salt, and spices. Add ⅓ cup water. Cover and cook over medium heat until vegetables are soft, stirring every 5 minutes (will take about 20 minutes). Remove from heat, add tomatoes, breaking up with a wooden spoon.

Step 2

Add remaining ingredients, bring to a gentle boil, reduce to a simmer, partially cover, and cook for 30 minutes. Serve over zucchini noodles, drizzle with tahini, and a sprinkle of fresh parsley. Store leftover ratatouille and noodles separately in the refrigerator.
