Rustic Ratatouille and Sausage Baked in A Stilton Crust

Course Main Dishes

Ingredients in this Recipe

1 1/2 pound eggplant, skin on, cut into chunks
1 26 28 ounce can diced tomatoes with their juice (You can use fresh tomatoes of course, about a pound and a half, chopped, skins on, but the canned work surprisingly well here.)
1 3/4 cup all purpose flour (King Arthur)
1 large onion, cut into large dice
1 pinch salt
1 pound sweet Italian sausage meat, without casings. Ground lamb is also lovely.
1/4 cup ice water
1/4 cup minced Italian parsley
1/4 cup olive oil, plus 1 tablespoon
2 large cloves garlic, minced
2 pounds small zucchini and summer squash, cut into chunks (bi color varieties are great). If larger squash are used, remove seeds before cutting into chunks.
2 tablespoons chilled lard
8 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into chunks
