Caponata

Ingredients

1 Courgette, diced, skin on 

1 Large Aubergine, diced, skin on 

2 Red Onions, diced small

10 Cherry Tomatoes, quartered 

50g Pine Nuts

50g Raisins 

50ml Red Wine Vinegar

20g Sugar

Fresh Basil and Parsley 

1 Large Red Chilli, sliced finely

150ml Passata 

METHOD

First, roast the aubergine pieces in an oven with plenty of olive oil until they turn dark brown and the moisture has been cooked out.

Now sweat the onions, nuts, chilli and raisins in lots of olive oil, salt, and pepper until soft.

Now add the courgettes and tomatoes and increase the heat. After five minutes add the passata and cook this until it is mainly reduced.

Now finish with the roughly chopped herbs and aubergine. 

This is also excellent the following day in toast!
