    I love caponata and this recipe is lovely.
    I just made some last night and what I no longer do is all that work with the eggplant before cooking it. The simplified version is: after removing sections with too many seeds, cube the eggplant sections and drizzle with olive oil. Massage to be sure the eggplant is coated and roast in the oven at a high temperature, I used my toaster oven. This way, #1 I use less oil, #2 I free up my pans/stovetop for all the other veggies, and #3 the caponata comes together quicker. Sometimes I'll cook and then season the eggplant, let cool and store in the fridge a couple of days until I'm ready to make the rest of the caponata, so its a make-ahead shortcut.
