How do you make your gravy?

I figured it would be gone by now. Cake doesn't last long at out house either.

Thanks for the recipe. I'm going to give it a try and the cake one too but I am to keep the dark chocolate.

I sort of compromised on the icing ; I used dark chocolate, but grated milk chocolate on top of it, best of both worlds.

Ha, that was an excellent compromise. I'm sure your guest were satisfied with it too.

I got the water from the broccoli. Poured in on the griddle to get the stock off my steak.then i put some spring onion and chopped mushrooms in a frying pan and cooked them for a bit. Then i just poured the water with the steak juice over the spring onion and mushrooms. Added some bisto to thicken it up then added a bit of single cream.

Dunno if its technically gravy but it was brown so. Gravy

I like your technique and it is indeed a gravy according to the definition but not because it is brown but because it was made from meat juices.

gra·vy
/ˈɡrāvē/
noun
1.a sauce made from cooked meat juices usually combined with a liquid such as chicken or beef broth, wine or milk and thickened with flour, cornstarch, or some other thickening agent.

Baked beans AND peas? Surely that's "either, or"?

Haha .. Yes its an either,or!

I cant decide between the two as to a favourite (equal loves) so I just alternate or use which ever I find first in the cupboard or freezer.

Corned beef hash with carrots and peas. Had some corned beef left so made some fritters, very nice.

I'm going to have a go at making some arrowroot biscuits tomorrow, using Mrs Beeton's recipe.

The only English recipe I could find, the rest were American, with their 'cups' measurements.
Here it is, for future reference, I'll be knocking down the ingredients by at least 50%. lol
