Method:
In a large saucepan, heat the oil over medium
heat. Add the celery, bell peppers, and onions and cook until
vegetables are slightly softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add tomatoes
and brown sugar, reduce the heat, and simmer, stirring
occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved. Add the
remaining ingredients. Cover and cook over low heat for 1 hour,
stirring occasionally. Check the seasoning, adding more salt if
needed.
Let cool, store in an airtight container, and place in the
refrigerator. It will last for months. |
