- Slice the aubergines into thick rounds and then cut each round into 4 pieces.
- Add the aubergines or eggplant to the frying pan with the remaining olive oil and fry for 5 minutes or until golden brown.
- Add the tomatoes, olives and sugar to the pan, stirring until all the sugar has dissolved.
- Add the red wine vinegar, reduce the heat and simmer for about 10-15 minutes or until the sauce thickens.
- While the pan is still on the heat, add the capers and season to taste.
- Remove from heat and allow cooling before serving, sprinkling with parsley to serve.
- This Salad is best served cold the day after it is made, which allows all the flavors to mingle and be fully absorbed.
