    Gravy: Fat-Free Gravy


    Source of Recipe


    Diet Recipes To-Go, from Choice Cooking, Canadian Diabetes Association 1986

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup broth & defatted drippings
    2 tsp all purpose flour
    1 tsp cornstarch
    1 tsp ketchup
    1 pinch salt
    1 pinch freshly ground pepper
    1 pinch basil (beef) or sage (chick)

    Recipe



    A waist-watcher gravy - quite thin. Serve over meat or potatoes.

    Cook up bones as for soup, strain liquid. Refrigerate overnight or until white fat on top can be removed with a spoon. Refrigerate meat drippings from the pan and skim off the fat.

    Combine broth, flour and cornstarch in a screw-top jar, cover and shake until well combined or use a blender for a larger batch. Pour into saucepan, stir in ketchup, salt, pepper and basil for beef (or sage for turkey, or other herb of your choice). Stir-cook over medium heat until gravy thickens. (Mine didn't thicken but I had some lumps of flour or cornstarch.) Makes about 1 cup.
