Make Your Own Homemade Gravy

 One of the things I like most when cooking chicken or beef is gravy. But it's not always possible to get enough juices to make it.

Not to worry. Here is a gravy recipe I make all the time.

Pour your juices from the chicken or beef into a saucepan. If there's not enough to make gravy for the meal, you can add broth. I don't bother keeping broth. I use chicken or beef bullions and mix it in water. In this case pour a cup or so of the water you need to make a generous amount of gravy into the juices and add the bullions cubes. I'll usually add 2 or 3 cubes per cup. 

A little trick to make the gravy even better is to mix beef and chicken bullions. 

Now add some flour into a shaking container and add water. Shake until the right thickness. Bring the gravy mixture to a boil and slowly add the flour mixture to the juices. Keep stirring and only add a small amount at a time. Add until you reach the thickness you want.

This is delicious and when my chicken recipes call for mashed potatoes, I'm good to go.
