Sausage Gravy

Source of Recipe


From "Tupelo Honey Cafe" by Elizabeth Sims



List of Ingredients



• 4 ounces ground pork
  
• 1-1/2 tsp unsalted butter
  
• 2 Tbsp plus 1-1/2 tsp all-purpose flour
  
• 3 cups half-and-half
  
• 1 to 2 tsp sea salt
  
• Freshly ground black pepper
  






Instructions



1. In a frying pan, crumble and brown the pork on high heat until no longer pink.
   
   
2. Reduce the heat to medium, add the butter, and stir until melted. Add the flour and cook 4 to 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until slightly browned. Continue stirring while adding the half-and-half and 1 teaspoon of the salt.
   
   
3. Return the heat to high and whisk constantly for about 5 minutes, or until thickened. Add the pepper and more salt to taste, and serve immediately over biscuits. A side of eggs and you've got a breakfast that will keep you going. At least until lunch.
   
   Makes approximately 3 cups.
