It's a salad. It can be an entree or a side.

>> No.18796015

>entree or appetizer
First, entree means "entrance" IE it's the starter IE the entry into the meal IE appetizer (sic). ytf do Americans use the word for starter to mean a main?
Secondly, my mother served it each Easter, and a few other miscellaneous meals each year, as a side dish to a roast (usually chicken or pork, but lamb or goat on Easter) or whatever the English word is for food cooked by open flame (usually steak or pork ribs or lamb ribs), but afaik, it was more common in the poorer past to have it as a main.

>>18795847
Vegetarian mains can be nice. The OG parmigiana di melanzane (not the inexplicably breaded American version) is a great example of one. I would not eat that as a side.

>>18795878
I occasionally make lentil "burgers" as a meal because I like the taste.

the recipe is still a ratatouille (au four - in the oven)
the presentation is called a tian (de ratatouille, or "de legumes", "of vegetables")
I agree with you though, because the ingredients are thinly sliced in the op dish it will be ready faster and the veg will keep their identity while they'll blend together in an actual stew like a ratatouille. That's just me. Darroze and Ducasse have a different opinion.
