gravy from scratch

Recipe video above. This recipe is how I make a seriously tasty gravy using water in 4 minutes flat. The secret is to use both chicken AND beef stock cubes. Beef adds colour and flavour oomph, whereas chicken is the base flavour. Use crumbled cubes if you can as some brands of beef powder won&#x27;t give the same nice brown colour (ends up pale).

Gravy Recipe (Tastes Like Kfc - But A Million Times Better!)

chicken stock

beef stock

(565 milliliters) boiling water

60 grams/ 4 tbsp butter (, unsalted)

tbsp flour (, plain / all purpose)

tsp onion powder ((ok

tsp black pepper

Gravy recipe (tastes like KFC - but a million times better!)

Crumble cubes into boiling water, mix to dissolve.

Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat.

Add flour, onion powder and pepper. Mix into butter with a wooden spoon or whisk.

While stirring, slowly pour in half the liquid. Once incorporated into the flour butter roux (it will thicken quickly), add remaining liquid and mix.

Stir for 1.5 - 2 minutes until it thickens to a gravy consistency (it&#x27;s quick as water is already hot). Taste, add more salt and pepper if needed.

Serve over chops, steak, sausages, veggies, roast chicken, pork, beef, lamb. Pictured - KFC Potato and Gravy copycat!

Wow - didn't know a no-drippings gravy could taste so good. Fabulous recipe.

Was quick to make. I added an extra 2 cubes to really make the gravy taste like chicken along with an 1/8tsp of garlic powder. SUPER DELICIOUS for making the homemade kfc bowl.

Yum, yum, gravy. So easy and tastes amazing.

I made this brown gravy tonight and it's was great just like KFCs thank you so much for this recipe.

Oh yeah!!! That IS incredible!! S9 fast and so delicious! The butter adds the perfect amount of fat needed to substitute for the drippings. Well done again Nagi!! ❤️

I did this the gluten free way as described, and it's really nice! I couldn't tell you if it tastes like KFC, since I haven't eaten there in years, but it is good gravy, and really quick and easy!

5 stars
Came out exactly as the instructions described..my new go to gravy

It's okay, but you can make it taste more like KFC's if you use a pork seasoning packet from ramen noodles instead of a beef boullion cube. I bet the Col. originally mixed chicken and pork gravy, just saying... Boullion and seasoning packets still taste like/are composed of many unpronouncble ingredients, but this recipe is quick and easy-peasy.

OMG Nagi, you’re a genius! 😁So quick and easy using ingredients in the pantry. I used the large Massel brand stock cubes (in the box, not the plastic wrapper) and it was perfect. Tastes sooo good I could eat a bowl on its own! This is what KFC WISHES their gravy tasted like! ❤️

Homemade Gravy Recipe Without Pan Drippings

butter (unsalted, or olive oil)

all-purpose flour

chicken broth (cold, or vegetable broth)

milk

all purpose seasoning (or Italian seasoning)

black pepper

salt

Melt butter in a large cast-iron skillet on medium-high heat. Whisk in flour until combined. If the flour clumps add more butter. It should be like a thin paste. Whisk frequently, and cook until the flour starts to smell like pie crust, 2 - 3 minutes.

Whisk the cold chicken broth into the flour/butter mixture slowly so there aren’t any clumps. Then whisk in the milk, all-purpose seasoning, ground black pepper, and salt.

Cook until the gravy comes to a gentle boil, then cook for an additional 2 - 3 minutes or until it has thickened to your liking. 

Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary, then serve over biscuits, garlic mashed potatoes, or chicken fried steak. Enjoy!

Tried it last night. I used half and half instead of milk. It was DELICIOUS and simple! Thanks!

Had to add more milk because my chicken broth was salty.  A little butter too for more butter taste.
