Cut up eggplant, you can leave the skin on, and sauté with onions and celery in olive oil until the onions are
wilted. Add tomatoes, either a can of diced, or some fresh ones. Cook for awhile until you think this mixture
is done then add some vinegar (I like wine vinegar) and a dash of sugar, the capers and olives. Cook for
awhile longer and fix seasonings if you like. You can add fresh basil also. This is a guideline, but any way
you do it it will be delicious. Serve cold or at room temperature.
