Method
Slice all of the vegetables to a thickness of a ¼ of an inch. To make the sauce, add the Cookd Butter Masala Gravy paste to a pan and let it cook on a medium heat for 1 minute before adding the water. Once the sauce has slightly thickened, add the butter and the cream while stirring.
To make the vinaigrette, add olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt and black pepper to a bowl and whisk
To arrange the Ratatouille, apply the sauce to the base of the pan and spread into an even layer. Shingle all the vegetables one by one, alternating between each vegetable and place into the pan. Once the pan is filled, sprinkle salt over the vegetables along with the vinaigrette. Bake the Ratatouille in a preheated 180C oven for 40 minutes.
