In a large, heavy skillet or stockpot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add tomatoes, zucchini, eggplant, onions, dry red wine or water, salt and pepper and red pepper flakes.
Reduce heat to medium and cook for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has evaporated and the mixture resembles a stew. Add the basil and cook 5 minutes longer.
