Preparation

Step 1
Heat the oil in a large deep skillet over medium heat and sauté the garlic until lightly browned. Add the raisins and cook until plump, about 1 minute. Add the onion and cook until clear. Add 3 cups water and the remaining ingredients. Heat the mixture to boiling, then reduce heat and simmer for 50 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 2
Strain the mixture, reserving the liquid. Purée the pulp in batches in a blender. Combine the purée and the cooking liquid in the same skillet and cook until the sauce is reduced to the desired consistency.
