Method
step 1
Put everything into a large saucepan and cover with 3 litres of cold water. Bring slowly to the boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 45 mins-1 hr or until the liquid reduces by two-thirds to around 1 litre. Cool for 10 mins, then strain into a jug and cool. The stock can be made ahead and chilled or frozen for up to 1 month.
