Preparation
Step 1
Crumble cubes into boiling water, mix to dissolve.
Step 2
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
Step 3
Add flour, onion powder and pepper. Mix into butter with a wooden spoon or whisk.
Step 4
While stirring, slowly pour in half the liquid. Once incorporated into the flour butter roux (it will thicken quickly), add remaining liquid and mix.
Step 5
Stir for 1.5 - 2 minutes until it thickens to a gravy consistency (it's quick as water is already hot). Taste, add more salt and pepper if needed.
Step 6
Serve over chops, steak, sausages, veggies, roast chicken, pork, beef, lamb. Pictured - KFC Potato and Gravy copycat!
