Photo of Mediterranean Pie with Ratatouille by Mario
It’s me, Mario!
This week we are going to make a Mediterranean Pie.
For this dish we’re going to use one of our previous recipes, Ratatouille.
This Mediterranean Pie is easy to make and takes only a little time to prepare, but the result is very tasty! It is a great vegetarian or vegan meal (if you get yourself a vegan puff pastry), but it can easily be adjusted to your personal preference, for example with an addition of your favourite veg, nuts or seeds, or even meat.
I must say, since posting a photo of the Pie on my personal social media, I’ve had a lot of requests for this recipe. Check out my social media below and if there’s anything you’d like to see first, or if you have any questions about our recipes – simply let us know!

Cook time: 20 minutes
Total time: 30 minutes

Recipe by Mario
INGREDIENTS
- 1 batch of our Ratatouille
- 150 g puff pastry
- 120 g chickpeas
- 140 g sweetcorn
- 1 enamel dish [approx. 24 cm (L) x 18 cm (W) x 6 cm (D)]
- Flour for dusting
- 1 egg for egg wash/for Vegans: olive oil
INSTRUCTIONS
- Cook our Ratatouille according to the instructions.
- Add chickpeas and sweetcorn to Ratatouille, mix well and transfer into the enamel dish, level the mix with the back of the spoon.
- Dust working surface with a little flour and roll out puff pastry to half a centimeter thick rectangle (as big as your baking dish).
- Cover the baking dish with puff pastry, cut off any excess pastry round the edges, then gently press the edges to seal the pie.
- Score pastry with a fork (this will help release the steam and stop the pastry from bursting).
- Beat the egg with a whisk, then give the pastry egg wash using a small brush. For Vegans: brush the pastry with olive oil.
- Bake the pie in pre-heated oven, 190 degrees Celsius, for approx. 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Enjoy while hot 🙂
NOTES
- Feel free to spice the ratatouille filling up or add more of your favourite vegetables!
- This recipe can be multiplied and cooked in a bigger baking dish, but please remember to adjust the cooking time slightly.
- As I mentioned before, this pie recipe can be adjusted to your own preference, for example with an addition of your favourite veg, nuts or seeds, or even meat.
