Step 1

In a medium pot over medium low heat add the olive oil and sausage.

Step 2

Begin crumbling the sausage as it cooks. The sausage should be in small crumbles.

Step 3

Once the sausage is browned, add in the butter. Stir until melted. Next, add in half of the flour and whisk. Add more flour if you need it to make the roux. You may need more or less flour, depending on the amount of fat that comes off of your sausage.

Step 4

Allow the roux to cook for one minute then slowly add in the milk. Whisking to ensure there are no clumps.

Step 5

Turn the heat down if it is boiling. The gravy should just simmer.

Step 6

Whisk until the gravy has thickened. Season with salt and lots of black pepper. Enjoy!
