1 Roughly chop the capsicums, and toss with the eggplant, sugar and sage leaves. Set aside for 1 hour.
2 Fry the mustard, fennel seeds and caraway seeds with the pepper in the olive oil for 3 minutes over a moderate heat in a medium saucepan until the mustard seeds begin to pop. Add the garlic, ginger and nutmeg and stir well.
