Categories     Gravy and Sauces

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tablespoon oil Note 1 ((or half butter, half oil))
2 1/2 tablespoon all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme (or 1 tbsp fresh)
1 1/2 cups (354ml) beef broth, Note 2
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • MAKE ROUX (FLOUR AND OIL): Put 2 tablespoons oil (or butter, half butter/half oil or fat drippings) in small saucepan. Heat to medium heat. Stir in 2 1/2 tablespoons of flour and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes until the roux starts to turn a very light brown. This will get rid of the raw flour taste. Don't let it get too dark or burn. (It should be a loose paste. If too dry, add a bit more oil). Note 3 for gluten free gravy.
  • FINISH GRAVY: Add half of broth. Whisk until smooth. Add rest of broth and thyme. Whisk. Cook about 3 minutes until gravy has thickened. Taste and adjust seasonings (salt, pepper, more thyme). Note 4 for added flavorings.Gravy will thicken on standing or in fridge. To loosen, add a splash of water or broth.

Your favorite meat and potatoes dinner isn't complete without this easy and delicious Beef Gravy recipe. The deep color and rich flavor makes this gravy the perfect topping to so many meals!

Provided by Echo Blickenstaff

Categories     Dinner     Main Course     Sauce

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons butter ((optional, see notes above))
4 cups beef broth ((or beef drippings, or combination of both))
3 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
4 tablespoons cornstarch
1/3 cup water
beef bouillon (to taste)
ground black pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • In a medium-sized sauce pan, combine butter, beef broth, onion powder, and garlic powder. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
  • Reduce heat and bring to a simmer.
  • In a small bowl or liquid measuring cup, combine cornstarch and water, stirring until well combined.
  • While whisking the broth CONSTANTLY, slowly add cornstarch mixture to the saucepan. I like to pour in about a tablespoon at a time to gauge consistency. You may not need all of the cornstarch mixture, add only until desired consistency is reached.
  • Add beef bouillon (or Kosher salt-- I just like the depth of flavor the beef bouillon adds as compared to straight up salt) and pepper to taste.
  • Allow to simmer 2-3 minutes. Serve over potatoes, rice, poutine, or your favorite beef dishes.
