Ingredients

Sausage Gravy Ingredients

Vegetarian Mushroom Gravy Ingredients

Preparation

Sausage Gravy Directions

1. Cook the sausage

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage, breaking it up with a spatula until it's browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

2. Make a roux

Sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage and stir to combine. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to let the flour absorb the fat.

3. Add milk

Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

4. Season

Add salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste. Stir well and let simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Vegetarian Mushroom Gravy Directions

5. Cook the mushrooms

In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped mushrooms until they are browned and have released their moisture, about 5-7 minutes.

6. Make a roux

Sprinkle the flour over the cooked mushrooms and stir to combine. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to allow the flour to absorb the moisture.

7. Add vegetable broth

Gradually whisk in the vegetable broth, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

8. Season

Add salt, black pepper, thyme, and garlic powder to taste. Stir well and let simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.
