Meat Gravy

 

Here is your basic recipe for meat gravy.  Enjoy!

Your Host,  Brad

To each 1/4 cup fat and savory brown juice in the roasting pan, add 1/4 cup flour and blend until smooth.  Add 2 cups cold water or cooking water from boiled potatoes, or milk;  stir constantly over direct heat while heating until it boils and thickens.  Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Variation:  To make gravy for braised meat or pot roast, which has a considerable amount of liquid in the pan, remove the meat and slowly stir into the simmering liquid enough flour paste (flour mixed with water to a heavy thickness) to make gravy the right thickness.  If it becomes too thick, add more water.  Season with salt and pepper to taste.
