  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 medium carrots, sliced
  • 3 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 2 celery stalks, sliced
  • 1 parsnip, diced (optional)
  • 4 cups beef or lamb broth
  • 1 cup dry red wine (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
