4. Whisk together chicken stock, worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, brown sugar, and mustard.
5. Add the bay leaves to the pan and pour the sauce over everything.
6. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to medium low.
7. Cover and cook for about 30 minutes or until potatoes are soft and carrots are tender crisp.
