In a large skillet, cook the onion in the oil until tender and golden, about 10 minutes. 2 Stir in the potatoes, olives, capers, and salt and pepper to taste. Add 1 cup of water and bring to a simmer. Cook 15 minutes. 3 In a small bowl, stir together the vinegar and sugar, and add it to the skillet.
