Mmm, pot roast!. A gravy is just a white sauce (bechemel) that has meat drippings added to it!. Melt 2 T butter in a saucepan over medium heat!. When the foaming subsides, add 2 T white flour!. Whisk to combine, cook the flour and butter mixture (roux) for 3-4 minutes!. Add the meat drippings (as much as you can) and 1 1/2 cups of beef or chicken stock, whisking like mad!. Bring to a boil, add another 1/2 cup of liquid, add salt to taste and serve!.
*Note - the gravy may not need that last dose of liquid - use your best judgement!. also, fresh herbs can be added unchopped with the first addition of liquid, then strained out before the gravy is served!. Delicious!Www@FoodAQ@Com
