-       One cube of chicken stock

-       1 cup of dry white wine

Method:

-       In a food processor, add carrot, garlic, onion, and celery – blitz until very finely chopped. If you don’t have a food processor, chop these until they’re as fine as possible

-       Place the above mixture in a heavy based saucepan or cast iron pot  along with a couple of tablespoons of olive oil

-       Turn on the heat to about medium, and fry off for a minute or two
