Rinse under cold water; drain very well and pat dry with paper towels.
In a large Dutch oven, heat 3 tablespoons oil over medium heat.
Add in the eggplant and zucchini; cook and stir occasionally for 10 minutes or until lightly browned; Transfer to another bowl and set aside.
Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the Dutch oven; heat; add the onion, celery and red pepper.

Add the garlic; cook for 1 minute.
Add the wine and increase to high heat.
Cook for about 3 minutes or until the wine is reduced by half.
Add in the tomatoes with juice and the potatoes.
Bring to a boil, lower heat, cook uncovered, stirring frequently, for 20 minutes.
Add the eggplant and zucchini back to the pot; continue cooking and stirring for about 20 more minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
