Recipe: Brown Gravy
Ingredients:
1 TBSP. olive oil
2 small Spanish onions, sliced or diced
5 TBSP. unsalted butter
3 TBSP. all-purpose flour
1 TSP. chopped fresh rosemary
1 TSP. chopped fresh thyme
1 TSP. chopped garlic
2 cups chicken stock or water
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
1. Heat the olive oil over medium flame and sauté the onions for 10 to 15 minutes, until well browned. (For lighter gravy, cook for about 8 minutes.)
2. Add the butter. Once the butter is melted, whisk in the flour and cook for 3 to 5 minutes until toasted to a nice deep brown.
3. Add the herbs and garlic.
4. Slowly whisk in the stock and simmer over medium heat until the gravy thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
