So a few days ago i decided i hadn't had bangers and mash in a long while nor had i ever really made an onion gravy in a long old time. i also figured its something alot of people usually take the easy option and by the stuff u just add hot water to which just tastes like really bad ass! so here is my recipe for onion gravy baby!
so here it is nice and simple and fast so u can get it going on while everything else is getting cooked.
Ingredients:
2 big 'fat ass' onions thinly sliced
1 clove of garlic sliced and diced
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp of expensive butter. (You cheap skates!)
2 tsp of sugar
2 tsp of balsamic
Dash of lemon juice
Glass of red wine or white (red is better) (25 ml)
Ppint of vedge stock or beef stock
4 tsp of flour(cornflour, but plain will do)
Seasoning (black pepper, salt)
4 tsp of cold water(tres important i cant stress this enough)
METHOD to this madness:
firstly, melt the oil and butter in a pan over a gentle heat once melted add the garlic and onion. cover with a lid or a plate for approx ten mins still on a gentle heat until the onions are clear and soft,
at the point you need to add your sugar lemon and balsamic re cover and cook for about 5 mins,
now uncover add the stock and wine and gently boil for 5 mins. while this is going on add your flour to a heat proof dish with some salt and pepper add the cold water and mix well together until you have a kind of paste consistency. after the 5 mins add a little bit of the gravy to the heatproof bowl and mix the paste and the gravy together completely. Now pour back into the pan and stir, turn the heat up high and boil until the gravy is thickened! that is it done done done! and it will taste brilliant i promise! nom! nom! perfect with Lincolnshire sausages and a nice cheesy creamy mash!
lovely stuff!
Today i have eaten:
Yoghurt, honey, mint, strawberry and banana mixed together for breakfast! was so so so good!
Beans on toast with Cumberland sausages and a nice cheese and onion omelette for lunch
Chicken in black bean with egg fried rice for tea. (one of my favourite and very quick things to cook prepe and cooking time less than half an hour! NOM!
I've had 7 brews today! ran out of sugar and tea bags though which isn't ideal! co op in the morning i think!
for the spelling and grammar police out there.. go have a seizure!
