Method
- Cook the potatoes in plenty of boiling salted water for 12–14 minutes or until tender. Drain and leave until cool enough to handle, then peel off skins.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large casserole over a medium heat and cook the onion for 5 minutes, covered and stirring occasionally. Add the aubergine and cook, covered, for another 8 minutes until tender. Add the garlic, cinnamon, cloves and oregano and stir well.
- Pour in the vinegar, passata and 200ml (7fl oz) water. Add the tomato paste, butter beans, olives and cooked potatoes and bring to the boil. Turn the heat down, part-cover with a lid, and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring regularly, until reduced and thickened.
