  • 200 gr. sausages
  • 600 gr. chopped tomato
  • 1 tsp sugar

Execution

In a pan with olive oil sauté the onions, garlic and peppers.

Then add the eggplants and sausages cut into slices and mix until browned.

Add the white wine and wait 1-2 minutes for the alcohol to evaporate.

Add the tomatoes, salt, pepper, sugar and tomato paste.

If we want to make it spicy we add the hot pepper or chili flakes.

Allow to cook for 30 to 40 minutes. Serve with fried potatoes and chopped parsley.

Full July noon…
even if olive groves didn’t exist…
I would have invented them.
