Pasta Caponata

• doses: Makes 2-3 portions

Ingredientes

Caponata is loved all around the world and in Sicily there are many different versions. But I made mine in a way that it complements the pasta perfectly. It’s also delicious on its own on top of homemade toasted bread, as a bed for a burrata, with roast chicken or an oven-baked fish, or even with couscous! 🙌

When the vegetables are fully in season, the sauce is often made in big batches and preserved in a glass jar so you can enjoy them again later in the year. Or it keeps well up to 4 days in the fridge.
