Title: easy to make gravy
Post by: Luna on April 17, 2006, 09:19:05 AM
1 medium onion, finely diced
3 T. olive oil
1/2 stick (2 oz) butter
3 T. all-purpose flour
1 cup vegetable stock
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

METHOD
In a skillet, sauté the onion in the olive oil until it is brown.  Add the
butter and lower the heat.  As the butter melts, add the flour, stirring constantly to
keep it from burning.  After the flour browns, add the stick and stir until the gravy
thickens.  Season with salt and pepper.

Ha ha ha ha, that's not funny at all but since there were no cheese, I can say that sounds like a tasty recipe. I might even try it if I can find some onions that are already finely diced!

Oh I have no problems with onions and I cut them myself but I can never get them small enough for some recipes so I have to search for the finely diced ones or let my GF cut them smaller for me. And yes I did laugh so :P

Actually, you're the second person I've ever known that doesn't like cheese.  It took me a while to absolrb the fact that my friend in Philly (Home of the Philly Cheesesteak) DID NOT like cheese.  The fact that you don't like cheese is much more easy to absorb since I've already gone through this before.   

I'm lactose intollerant, and I take those little pills.  I couldn't live without cheese. :D
