For the vegetarian gravy, finely dice the onion and carrot. Heat the sunflower oil in a saucepan and fry the diced vegetables and rosemary over relatively high heat until toasted. Then add the flour and fry, stirring constantly, until well browned. Dissolve the vegetable stock in boiling water and add to the toasted flour in the saucepan. Then add the soy sauce and bring everything to a boil. Purée the sauce with a hand blender and season to taste with pepper and a little chili powder. Continue to cook the gravy over low heat, stirring occasionally. Prepare the fries according to the package instructions. Cut the mozzarella into small cubes and place on top of the salted fries. Pour the vegetarian gravy over the top and garnish with the chopped parsley.
