Fat-Free Gravy from Healthy Diabetic Recipes

Fat-Free Gravy Recipe

Recipe 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 Instructions:

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.

“Food for all is a necessity. Food should not be a merchandise, to be bought and sold as jewels are bought and sold by those who have the money to buy. Food is a human necessity, like water and air, it should be available.”

~ Pearl Buck (1892-1973) American Nobel Prize winning author.
