A PROPER BRITISH GRAVY



A Proper British Gravy image

I received this recipe the last time I was in London, and when the chef handed it to me he actually said: "This is a proper British Gravy." WELL ALLRIGHTY THEN Let's just say that I was not disappointed. Good rich flavor that would compliment any beef dish, and I would be amiss if I didn't tell you that it would go great...

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 14

PLAN/PURCHASE
grapeseed oil, for cooking
8 oz ground chuck
1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
2 tsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
2 c water, room temperature
1 c beef stock, not broth
1 c light ale
4 1/2 Tbsp flour, all purpose variety
1 Tbsp black currant jam
2 tsp dry mustard
2 Tbsp malt vinegar
salt, kosher variety, to taste
black pepper, freshly ground, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. PREP/PREPARE
  • 2. Gather and prep your ingredients.
  • 3. Add about a tablespoon of grapeseed oil to a pot over medium heat.
  • 4. Add the ground beef, and use a wooden spoon to break it up as you cook.
  • 5. Allow it to cook for a few minutes; it should still be slightly pink.
  • 6. Remove from the pot, and place into a food processor, fitted with an S-blade, and then lightly season with some salt and pepper.
  • 7. Give the partially cooked beef a few 1-second pulses, until it's finely ground, but not mush.
  • 8. Return the beef to the pot and finish cooking.
  • 9. Chef's Note: If you want to skip these steps, you can always have your butcher finely grind the beef right at the store.
  • 10. Add the onion and rosemary leaves to the pot.
  • 11. Continue to stir until most of the liquid from the onions has been cooked off, about 15 minutes.
  • 12. Deglaze the pot using the light ale, and a wooden spoon.
  • 13. Chef's Note: Deglazing a pan utilizes a liquid (wine, beer, broth), to soften up and incorporate those yummy dried bits of flavor stuck to the bottom of the pan (called fonds) back into the recipe.
  • 14. Cook until slightly reduced in volume, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  • 15. Add the flour, dry mustard, jam, and vinegar to the two cups of water and whisk to combine.
  • 16. Add the water and the beef stock to the skillet, and reduce heat to a simmer.
  • 17. Simmer for 30 minutes, or until nice and thick.
  • 18. Chef's Note: During this time, season with more salt and pepper, to taste.
  • 19. Chef's Tip: I like to add a pinch of cayenne (especially in the cold Winter months) for a bit of a kick.
  • 20. After 30 minutes add the gravy to a food processor fitted with an S-blade, and pulse until smooth.
  • 21. Return to the pot, and keep warm until ready to use.
  • 22. PLATE/PRESENT
  • 23. Chef's Note: Serve this over just about any beef, to add a bit of dimension to the dish.
  • 24. In this example, I use it with some homemade meatballs as an alternative to the traditional Italian tomato sauce that would normally be used. These will be one of my New Year appetizers. Enjoy.
  • 25. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

Mushroom sauce can be done with any type of stock, but I used beef stock here since I'm going to be serving with meatloaf.
