Gravy sauce
Gravy sauce
It is a thick and flavorful sauce, typically prepared with meat drippings, broth, and flour. Perfect for accompanying roasts and potatoes, it adds a rich and enveloping touch to any meat dish. Today I suggest the easiest and lighter version made only with good meat broth

6 Gravy sauce
Once all the broth has been added, let it cook, stirring constantly, for a few more minutes until it reaches a liquid but thick consistency

Cost

Although gravy is essential for a successful roast, its cost is truly negligible

Health

It is a very tasty and rather caloric sauce, but since only a little is used you can prepare it even when on a diet. For a lighter version, use vegetable broth
