Not quite sure what you're starting from.

If it's water plus small chunks of onion, carrot, celery, maybe some sprigs of parsley, mushrooms, turnips, little bits of other vegetables (even some chopped tomato, but NOT broccoli or cabbage or other really strong-flavored vegs, and not potatoes, which will make the stock cloudy) -- just about 30 minutes is enough. Vegetable stock does not get better with long simmering.

And to do what you want, I would add a little olive oil and some good tomato sauce.
