4 potatoes or the parings of 6 potatoes, 2 red onions, 1 tomato, 3 tablespoons flour, salt, sage, juice of 1/2 lemon.
Scrub the vegetables thoroughly, do not peel, cut up and cook as for potato soup stock, recipe 24. Strain off 1 pint (or more) of the broth for the brown sauce. (Use the remainder, after straining through a colander, for soup.) Brown the flour in the oven or in a dry pan over the flame. Rub it smooth with water and thicken the vegetable broth. Add the juice of 1/2 lemon, a pinch of sage, salt to taste. Other vegetable broths or simply potato water may be used in the preparation of this gravy. The addition of a little cereal coffee will deepen the brown color. Number of servings, 6.
