How do you make a juice of parsley?

Chop parsley and separate stalks put finely chopped leaves into a saucepan of salted boiling water (can use a stock such as vegetable, chicken or fish stock).

Mix some flour with water and whisk and add to saucepan.

Add a spoon of white vinegar and a little white pepper.

The trick is to thicken the liquor and I find that adding some arrowroot helps and gives the glazed effect that is found in Pie & Mash shops.

I've tried various other methods including making a roux with plain flour and butter - adding mustard, garlic, using water from boiling potatoes as a base - but none have been satisfactory - too much potatoe water leaves visible granular potatoe residue in the liquor. I've also tried green food dye - mashed peas - all of which have been mentioned in blogs on the internet - but I can't recommend any of these.

The nearest I can get to the range of liquors found in the London eel pie and mash shops is the simple ingredients I've mentioned but the arrowroot seems to add the edge to thickening and achieving the glazed finish.

I've had second thoughts about my answer above since becoming convinced that mash potatoe was used in some liquor

My improved recipe uses dried parsley only and some instant mash to thicken:

In a measuring jar:

Whisk 2-3 heaped tablespoons of plain flour in cold water

Whisk in 1-2 heaped tablespoons of Arrowroot

Add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar

Some white pepper

Some sea salt

Add about one third of a small jar of dried parsely (in date - leafy and fresh)

Add a little green food colouring

Add the contents of the jar to a saucepan

Top up with potato stock

It will thicken as it heats but can be improved with potato:

Thicken as necessary with a little instant potato mixed with boiling water
