In a saucepan, warm the oil over medium heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic and sauté until everything is softened, about 5 minutes. Mix in the remaining ingredients, reduce the heat to low, and cook until the mixture thickens, approximately 30 minutes. Stir frequently. Let the sauce cool briefly. Spoon the sauce into a blender and puree it until smooth. If the consistency is thicker than you prefer, add a little water. Use the sauce warm or chilled. It keeps refrigerated, for at least two weeks.
