Bring a large pot of water to a boil.

In the meantime, put a large saucepan on medium-high heat with the olive oil and same quantity of water, then "sautee" onion and garlic until onion becomes translucent.

Add capers, sun dried tomatoes, hot pepper flakes and olives, stir and add wine, let alcohol evaporate.

When alcohol is evaporated, add tomatoes, lower heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes.
