Ina Garten's Homemade Gravy image

So last night I baked some pork chops for dinner. I decided this was the perfect opportunity for trying out the Barefoot Contessa's Homemade Gravy recipe. It was delicious...fattening, but delicious. Now, I comfort myself with the idea that we had baked pork chops, dry bread, green beans and instant potatoes (I should be ashamed, I suppose) so the gravy was my one indulgence. It was worth it.

Time 35m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 lb unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups chopped yellow onions (2 onions)
1/4 cup flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 cups chicken stock
1 tablespoon heavy cream (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large (10 to 12-inch) saute pan, cook the butter and onions over medium-low heat for 12 to 15 minutes, until the onions are lightly browned. Don't rush this step; it makes all the difference when the onions are well-cooked.
  • Sprinkle the flour into the pan, whisk in, then add the salt and pepper. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the hot chicken stock mixture and Cognac, and cook uncovered for 4 to 5 minutes until thickened. Add the wine and cream, if desired. Season, to taste, and serve.

This gravy is a good starting point, but I think it needs some tweaking. I'll add some herbs and spices next time to give it more flavor.

I'm not a big fan of gravy, but this one was pretty good. I might make it again sometime.

This gravy is okay, but I've had better. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my gravy turned out lumpy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I wasn't impressed with this gravy. It was bland and lacked flavor.

This gravy is a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of salt next time.

This gravy is the perfect addition to any roasted meat. I especially love it with chicken or turkey.

Ina Garten's homemade gravy is a game-changer! I've tried so many recipes, but this one is by far the best. It's rich, flavorful, and has the perfect consistency.
