Fat-Free Gravy

Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

1 cup 237mlBroth and defatted drippings
2 teaspoons 10mlAll purpose flour
1 teaspoon 5mlCornstarch
1 teaspoon 5mlKetchup
1   Salt
1   Freshly ground pepper
1   Basil - (beef) or sage (chick)

Recipe Instructions

A waist-watcher gravy - quite thin. Serve over meat or potatoes.

Cook up bones as for soup, strain liquid. Refrigerate overnight or until white fat on top can be removed with a spoon. Refrigerate meat drippings from the pan and skim off the fat.

Combine broth, flour and cornstarch in a screw-top jar, cover and shake until well combined or use a blender for a larger batch. Pour into saucepan, stir in ketchup, salt, pepper and basil for beef (or sage for turkey, or other herb of your choice). Stir-cook over medium heat until gravy thickens. (Mine didn't thicken but I had some lumps of flour or cornstarch.) Makes about 1 cup.
