Homemade Onion Gravy

This easy onion gravy is a British classic traditionally served with bangers and mash or toad in the hole. But it is equally delicious on roasts, chops, mashed potatoes or fries. 

 Ingredients:

1 large onion, sliced

2 tsps bacon drippings

1 tsp butter

1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp dry mustard

1 1/2 cups beef broth

1 tbsp flour

salt and pepper to taste 

Heat a skillet to medium high heat then add the bacon fat and onion. Cook about 5 minutes to brown, then reduce heat to medium and continue cooking another 5 minutes. Whisk flour into 2 tbsps of the broth, set aside. Add mustard and the remaining broth to the skillet, then whisk in the flour/2 tbsp broth roux. Simmer on medium low for 10-15 minutes. Add Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper.

Serves 2-3
