This recipe is from Rose Elliot's Vegetarian cookbook and I have used it for about 15 years now and it is wonderful with nut roasts. We even use it with fries and cheese to make a Vegetarian Quebec Poutine where I work.Do not use a blender to break up the onions. It just doesn't seem to work. Can be frozen and the recipe is easily doubled.
Ingredients:
1 onion, peeled and chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons plain flour
1 fresh garlic clove, crushed
450 ml vegetable stock
1 teaspoon vegemite or 1 teaspoon marmite
1 tablespoon soy sauce
salt and pepper
Directions:
1. Fry the onion in the oil in a medium saucepan for 5 minutes.
2. Add the flour, and cook for a further 5-10 minutes, until flour and the onion are nut-brown and the onion is soft and slightly pulpy.
3. Add the garlic, cook for 1-2 minutes, then gradually stir in the dark vegetable stock. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 10 minutes.
4. Strain the gravy into a clean saucepan (push the onion through the sieve and add the yeast extract and soya sauce and salt and pepper to taste. Stir well, then serve.
