- For the Ratatouille: Saute/fry each vegetable in extra virgin olive oil separately till tender. Return the vegetables to a large saucepan, adding garlic, tomatoes, tomato juice and remaining extra virgin olive oil. Reduce by two-thirds or possibly till liquid is like a paste. Season with salt and pepper and add in a handful of minced herbs. Allow to cold completely.
- For the Herb Phyllo Crisp: Unfold phyllo sheets out of the box and cover with a wet cloth. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place minced herbs in a workable container, pour melted butter into a workable container, have your paint brush ready, then clean your work space.
- The idea is to layer melted butter and minced herbs in between layers of phyllo, brush with melted butter, sprinkle with minced herbs and repeat for 3 layers. With a sharp knife, cut 6 even strips going vertically and then cut 4 even strips horizontally, making 24 even squares.
- Carefully mold each square into each space of the muffin pan till all are completed. Place in the middle rack and bake for 2 to 3 1/2 min. They cook very quickly. Remove from pan. Repeat this step till you have sufficient phyllo crisps for your party.
- Fill herb phyllo crisps with room temperature ratatouille, a small spoon of goat cheese, and you are ready to serve.

- Comments: Working with phyllo can be tricky for a first time user, but if you'll remember a few simple steps you will always have success.
- a. Never buy just one box, since some sheets are torn or possibly matted together.
- b. Make sure the box is completely thawed out before attempting any dish.
- c. Always cover sheets not being used with a damp cloth towel; phyllo will dry out and turn to cracker mill right before your eyes.
