A few last minute tricks to the rescue.
Too salty? Add a splash of water, a good grinding of pepper and 1 tsp redcurrant jelly / a squeeze of honey.
Lacking depth? Add some Worcestershire sauce and a grinding of pepper.
Too thin? Keep boiling it down over a high heat, stirring often. If it’s really thin, dissolve 1 tsp corn starch / corn flour in a splash of water and add to the gravy, stirring until it is thick and glossy.
Too thick? Add some extra stock.
Tastes a bit burnt or bitter? Add 1 – 2 tsp redcurrant jelly / a squeeze of honey.
Too light in colour? Keep boiling it down. Add some Worcestershire sauce if that won’t make it too salty.
Lumpy gravy? Just stir it, Una.
Really helpful tips! Thank you!
