Old Fashioned Brown Gravy
Description
Homemade brown gravy is more delicious than store-bought and easily made on the stove with pan drippings from roast beef, pork, chicken, or turkey.
Ingredients
•
2 tablespoons pan drippings
•
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
•
1 cup milk
•
1 cup water
•
salt and pepper to taste
Directions
1
Immediately after removing roasted meat from its pan, drain off drippings, reserving 2 tablespoons in the pan.
2
Sprinkle flour over drippings; cook and stir over medium heat until brown. Gradually stir in milk, whisking with a fork to scrape up all of the meaty bits from the pan, then gradually whisk in water.
3
Increase heat to medium-high; cook, stirring constantly, until gravy thickens, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
