salt and pepper

2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped

450 g parsnips, peeled and chopped

  2. Add the onions to the casserole and lightly brown. Stir in any remaining flour, the stock, red wine, tomato puree, lemon rind and bay leaves and season well. Bring to the boil and replace the meat. Cover and simmer for 2 hours, then skim well.
