Important Notes

⚠️

The video emphasizes the beautiful presentation of this dish, achieved by thinly slicing vegetables and arranging them meticulously in a spiral pattern.

⚠️

A mandoline is highly recommended for achieving consistent, thin slices of zucchini and eggplant. For tomatoes, a very sharp knife is ideal due to their delicate nature.

⚠️

The sauce serves as a flavorful base and helps prevent the vegetables from burning. Use just enough to cover the bottom of the pan.

⚠️

The video also showcases creative variations (Rootatouille, Appletouille, Breakfastouille) using the same layering technique with different ingredients, encouraging viewers to experiment with their own creations.
