Ingredients

  • 1 large coarsely chopped onion unpeeled
  • 1 large chopped Portobello mushroom
  • 2 garlic cloves smashed + unpeeled
  • 1 large chopped carrot unpeeled
  • 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons of tomato paste
  • 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil
  • 1 small coarsely chopped leek
  • 1 small chopped eggplant
  • 2 fresh parsley sprigs
  • 2 fresh thyme sprigs
  • ¼ cup of red wine
  • 6 cups of water
  • 1 celery stalk
  • 1 bay leaf

Instructions

  • Assemble the ingredients together.
  • Place oven rack in the middle position and preheat to 400°F.
  • Then, make a bouquet garni by tying together the celery stalk, thyme and parsley sprigs, and bay leaves using cooking string.
  • Using a baking sheet, toss the veggies with oil and bake for 1 hour, making sure to stir often.
  • When the veggies are brown, take them out of the oven and sprinkle them with flour.
  • Next, pour over the tomato paste and stir well to ensure that every vegetable is well saturated.
  • Place the baking sheet back in the oven and bake for another 10 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and transfer the veggies to a large pot, making sure not to clean the baking sheet.
  • Pour the red wine onto the baking sheet and use a spatula to scrape up any remaining brown particles.
  • Carefully transfer the red wine mixture to the pot of vegetables, then place the bouquet garni in with them, as well.
  • With the large pot over a burner, bring contents to a boil.
  • Adjust heat to let the contents simmer for approximately 1 hour.
  • Using a sieve and a ladle, strain the stock into a different pot. Use the ladle to push the veggies into the sieve so as to extract as many juices as possible.
  • Place the new pot over a burner and boil for either 10 minutes or until the contents reduce by half. Stir occasionally throughout.
  • Season to taste with pepper and salt then enjoy!
