For 4 people:
Cut the aubergines and the potatoes into cubes (they shouldnât be too small). Keep them separate. Cut the celery into pieces and keep those separate as well. Fry the aubergine cubes in boiling oil until they turn golden all over. Take them out of the pan (keep the oil warm in the pan!) and remove excess oil with kitchen roll. Fry the celery slices in the oil used for the aubergines. Remove the celery from the pan and use kitchen roll to remove excess oil. Use the same pan and oil to fry the potato cubes (do not fry completely). Remove them when they are half cooked and wrap them in kitchen roll.
Meanwhile soak the raisins in warm water. Once they have swollen remove seeds (if there are any). Cut the onion into large slices. Fry them together with the capers in oil. Cut the tomatoes in half and cook them in the pan until they become soft. Add salt, a couple of spoonfuls of concentrated tomato paste and half a glass of water . Cook for another 5 minutes.
Wait until the sauce has become dense before adding the potatoes. Keep on low heat and cook for about ten minutes. Next, add the vinegar, the sugar, the raisins, the pine nuts and the olives (as many you wish). Add salt and pepper to taste.
Add the aubergine and the celery. Cook for anoher 10 or 15 minutes on very low heat until all the liquid has boiled away.
Wait until it cools down before adding the basil. Leave in the fridge for at least one day. Serve cold.
