Vegetarian gravy Method

Step: 1 Sizzle the veg and herbs in butter for about 10-12 mins till the vegetables start to brown. Drive over the sugar and continue to cook till it becomes sticky and caramelized.

Step: 2 Mix in the flour until sandy, and then add Marmite, if using, tomato purée and vinegar. Spill over the stock, and simmer everything together till it becomes a thickened sauce.

Step: 3 Strain, then add soy sauce to flavour and color. Use it right now or cool it and freeze it for later.
