Simon’s version, Simon’s Fried Chicken Gravy, is simple to make, using essential cupboard ingredients and is gluten free. Ingredients 70ml Veg Oil 700ml Chicken Stock 300ml Beef Stock 1 Teaspoon Cajun Spice 1 Teaspoon Sea Salt ½ Teaspoon Cracked Black Pepper 120g Cornflour 150g Double Cream 1 Bay Leaf 4 Sprigs of Thyme 4 Sprigs of Oregano ½ Red Onion 1 Chicken Stock Pot Simon advises if you don’t have exactly everything on your list substitute or leave out if it’s not a main ingredient. Then take a large saucepan and add in your vegetable oil, heat on a high flame before adding your onion, then your herbs, then finally your dry ingredients. Mix well and cook out the cornflour. Add in your stock and bring to the boil for 20 minutes, skimming occasionally with a ladle. Next add in your double cream and simmer for another 10 minutes. This will darken the colour. Strain through a sieve and serve with chips, fried chicken and coleslaw. Story SavedYou can find this story in My Bookmarks.Or by navigating to the user icon in the top right.Follow OK!
