Method
- Finely chop the onion, leek and garlic.
- Heat the oil in the pan and fry slowly and gently on a low heat for 50 minutes. Stir occasionally just to make sure nothing sticks. Do take the full time and do it slow and low. You don't want to colour the onion much, just gently cooking through like this sweetens the flavour.
- After the 50 minutes, add the stock (vegetable stock can be used instead) and simmer gently for 15 mins.
