Which Gravy?

[carrust]

What flavour gravy do you have with liver & onions?
The liver is from a lamb.
The bacon is from a pig.
Do you have chicken flavour to go with the bacon, or lamb flavour to go with the liver.

[humbersloop]

Are you making your own carrust, or using granules?

[ummmm]

I would go with lamb. We don't normally serve bacon with gravy on it's own.

[carrust]

A stock cube & granules, HS.
I fry the bacon with the liver & onions ummm

[DTCwordfan]

I would go for a lamb if you are making it fresh.....that is the predominate meat ingredient too.

[ummmm]

Yes but the bacon is more a flavour enhancer.

[carrust]

Ohhhh the agony of choice:-)

[joggerjayne]

Beef granules go with anything.

Bisto now do an Onion Gravy

[carrust]

Is that from JJ's book of cooking tips? :-)

[carrust]

Lamb, chicken, beef, now onion:-@

[humbersloop]

chicken, it's light enough in flavour not to massacre either the liver or the bacon

ok, personally I'd fry the bacon and onions together, take the bacon out and keep it warm, flash the liver in the pan with the onions and put that in the warming dish with the bacon, cover in foil and keep warm gently

make up the stock cube, simmer the onions in the liquid for five minutes or so and then do what you do with your granules

serve - hope you've got a good pile of mash

[tonyav]

None, don't like the stuff.

[humbersloop]

forgot to say have a good scrape round the pan while the onions are simmering to get all the meat bits off and add a dash or worcester sauce if you've got any

soul boy, gravy is what bread's *for*

[tonyav]

Hippy chick, I haven't had any gravy since I was about 4 years old.

[carrust]

That's how i do L&O's humber.

[joggerjayne]

You can debate round and round but ... in the end ... it has to be beef.

Aunt Bessy's Beef Granules.

[humbersloop]

(carrust), didn't mean to preach

so chicken here- and I think gravy granules are another of the devil's works

tony x, that deprivation helps to explain a lot

[DTCwordfan]

splash of armagnac when you are sautéing off the liver and bacon......smidge of rosemary in....

[carrust]

Oooo that's a good idea DT, I'll try that.
