Steps:
- 1. Heat oil in heavy pot or Dutch oven. When oil is hot, gradually add flour, stirring continuously until well mixed. Lower heat and continue stirring until chocolate brown. When roux is chocolate brown, remove from pot and set aside. If roux remains in the pot, it will continue to cook and get too dark.
- 2. Always use warm water to dissolve the roux.
- 3. While you're at it, make more than enough as it keeps well in or out of the refrigerator.

BASIC ROUX
I do not like the taste of flour that has not been properly cooked, I find it is gritty tasting. This is a two ingredient thickener for gravies and sauces. I always keep this in the freezer and just break off the amount I need. Works in any recipe that needs thickening with no risk of lumps. Please ignore the serving size, this site insists on it.
