It is normally used for the British classic 'bangers and mash' as below or with steak/minced beef pie and mash. kzfaq.infoaIdXm5uv1DM?si=4bLFG_astWcZKhpG

This gravy looks great, I wish I could have a taste or at least smell it. I'm a bloke who enjoys cooking so I enjoyed watching this: no extraneous BS glorifying yourself, just simple and straight to the point. I've got some snags in the fridge: when I cook them with mashed potatoes and pees you can guess what kind off sauce will accompany them. Champion!

Good recipe. I nearly got unreasonably angry when you added the oil and shouted inside my head- where is the butter? But you saved the day. Nearly the same as my method but I add a bit of red wine, no sugar and caramelise the onions for half an hour to an hour. The only reason I add the red wine is so I can drink a glass while I stir the onions. We have either one glass or two glass onion gravy in our house.

@BackyardChef 2 жыл бұрын

Sounds like a great plan Oliver - Red wine here in Thailand is expensive for a decent one - there are some very cheap (Balsamic vinegar tasting) ones. I'm glad you make a good gravy - there is nothing better than a real gravy complimenting your meal. best, Rik

Personally - I cover them for the first 5/10 mins so they steam first so they get soft, then whip the lid off for another 5 mins so they caramelise up nicely instead of burning.
