- Trim the eggplants, cut them into 1-inch cubes, and transfer them to a colander. Sprinkle with salt and let them stand for 30 min. Rinse, drain well and pat dry.

- In a saucepan of boiling water, blanch the celery for 1 to 2 min, or possibly till just tender. Drain and pat dry.
- In a large skillet set over moderate heat, heat 3 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil till warm. Add in the eggplant in small batches and cook it, stirring occasionally and adding 3 to 4 Tbsp. of water to prevent sticking, till just tender and golden. Transfer the fried eggplant to a bowl and, adding oil and water as needed, fry the remaining eggplant.
- Add in 2 Tbsp. of oil to the skillet and heat it till warm over moderate heat. Add in the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, just till tender. Add in the tomato sauce, 2 c. water, the reserved eggplant, olives, capers, celery, and season with salt and pepper.
- Simmer the mix over low heat, stirring occasionally, for 30 min.
- In a small bowl, combine the sugar and vinegar, stirring till dissolved. Add in the sugar mix to the eggplant mix and stir to combine. Transfer the caponatina to a bowl, let it cold to room temperature, and refrigerateit, covered, for 1 to 2 days to allow the flavors to blend.
