Sweet and sour with raisins is a signature of Sicilian cooking, the same logic as caponata applied to courgettes. The vinegar goes in over high heat and is allowed to evaporate: leave too much and the dish tastes only of vinegar rather than of agrodolce. But enough talking — let's go straight to loading the ingredients into Liffo!

Tips

Remove the anchovies for a fully plant-based version. The weight of the raisins refers to before soaking in water. Almonds can be replaced at will with pine nuts. Mint can be replaced with marjoram leaves or chopped chives.

Plating

Ideal to pair with white rice, couscous or other grain cereals; alternatively as a side dish to main courses or as filling for a flatbread along with fresh cheese or hummus.
