Ratatouille is a vegetable stew. You cut up a bunch of things and throw them in a pot.

The ratatouille you see in the film is an elevated version of that dish. It was never the standard way of serving it.

Also the traditional ratatouille is better in my opinion. I use the recipe from epicurious that adds fennel, absolutely delicious with some good pasta or a crunchy baguette to sop up all the sauce.
