Our definitive onion gravy recipe – made with red onions, garlic and thyme – is perfect served with sausages and mash, toad-in-the-hole or your favourite roast dinner.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp oil
- 2 red onions, finely sliced
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 2 fresh thyme sprigs
- 1 tbsp plain flour
- 1 glass red wine
- 300-400ml chicken stock
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
Method
- Place a frying pan over a medium heat, add the oil and onions and cook for 10 minutes, stirring regularly so the onions don’t catch. Add the garlic and thyme and cook for a further 5 minutes until the onions are really soft.
- Stir in the flour, cook for 2 minutes, then add the red wine and bubble for a few minutes, until reduced by half. Add the stock gradually, stirring continually until you have a nice, thick gravy. Check the seasoning, add the balsamic vinegar and serve.
