Homemade Gravy

It’s Sunday and you’re making a roast with your favorites!!. You already started the roast, it’s all ready for the grand finale..Gravy!! But then…BAM💥!!!!

You don’t have a gravy packet or jar gravy or you don’t have enough gravy in the jar or packet and you don’t have a clue of how to make home made gravy!!! This recipe can also be used for chicken..

Well, here’s a simple recipe from ingredients that you already have on deck!! #homemadegravy #gravylovers #beefgravy #chickengravy #gravyfromscratch

Prep time: 6 minutes or less give or take,depending on how dark you want your gravy.

* 1 cup flour(preferably sifted to avoid lumps)

* 2 cups of water or beef broth

* 1 tbspn of cooking oil

* sprinkle of salt

* sprinkle of pepper

*** You can also chop up some beef/chicken bouillon cubes or beef/chicken packets from Ramen noodles for added taste. ..

*** You can also add other gravy on hand to add to the taste or to add to the amount you already have on hand.

1. In a large heated skillet, add the flour.

2. Brown the flour by stirring it back and forth for about 2-3 minutes or longer depending on how dark you want your gravy.

3. Add salt and pepper and about a cup of water/broth and continue adding water/broth until you reach the desired consistency, while stirring.

Making homemade gravy is not only simple but also incredibly satisfying. The key ingredients include flour, water or broth, and a bit of oil, salt, and pepper. Start by browning the flour in a heated skillet for optimal flavor. After achieving your desired color, gradually whisk in your liquids until you reach the perfect consistency. To take your gravy to the next level, consider incorporating additional flavor enhancers such as bouillon cubes or leftover gravy. You can also customize your gravy with chopped onions, bell peppers, or mushrooms for added depth. Gravy is a culinary staple enjoyed with various dishes, especially roasts. Understanding the foundational technique allows you to create different variations suited to your meal. Whether you prefer chicken, beef, or vegetarian gravies, this recipe serves as a great base. Embrace the versatility and experiment with different broths or seasonings to find your favorite combination. Homemade gravy can truly elevate your meals and impress your guests.

:O Ive never seen gravy made like this. It doesn't have a strong flour taste? I thought you always needed to make a rue which is equal parts flour and whatever fat you want to use. I'd use butter here probably. You can toast that till it get whatever color you want and then add your broth slowly while whisking constantly so there's no lumps. Simmer while still stirring till it thickens up. Then season to your taste and serve. :)
