British Mushroom Gravy Recipes

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until dry and tender, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and cook, stirring until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Add the Marsala and broth and continue to cook until it comes to a boil and thickens, about 5 minutes. Stir in the thyme and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a heavy 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and shallot. Saute, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 6 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons flour; cook until incorporated, about 1 minute. Add beef broth; cook, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in half-and-half, black pepper, and salt. Cook for 30 seconds more.

Steps:

• Heat butter over medium heat in a saucepan until it foams. Stir in mushrooms. Season with salt. Simmer until liquid evaporates, about 20 minutes.
• Stir in the flour, cooking and stirring for about 5 minutes. Add about 1 cup of beef stock, stirring briskly until incorporated, then pour in the remaining stock and mix thoroughly. Season with black pepper and thyme. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until thickened, about 30 minutes, stirring often.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a small saucepan.
• Add the onion and mushrooms and fry gently until really well-browned - this will give colour and flavour to the gravy.
• Dissolve the stock cube in the hot water and add to the saucepan.
• Add the blended cornflour and heat, stirring constantly, until thickened and smooth.

Steps:

• Put the dried mushrooms in a heatproof bowl and pour over 300ml boiling water from the kettle. Leave to soak.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large frying pan over a low-medium heat, and cook the onion for 10 mins until starting to turn golden. Tip in the chestnut mushrooms, add some seasoning, and cook for another 8-10 mins until softened.
• Stir in the miso paste and flour, turn up the heat and cook for a further 1-2 mins. Tip in the rehydrated mushrooms and most of their soaking liquid - leave the last few drops in the bowl, as it may contain grit. Stir well, add the stock and bring to a simmer.
• Gently simmer for 10-15 mins, until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Check for seasoning. If you prefer a thicker gravy, blitz with a hand blender until smooth. If you prefer a thinner gravy, strain and discard the onions and mushrooms before serving. Will keep frozen for up to three months.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion in the melted butter until softened, about 10 minutes.
• Reduce heat to low. Cover the pan and cook until onions are caramelized, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes.
• Stir flour into the caramelized onions and cook for 1 minute.
• Pour red wine, chicken stock (see Editor's Note), Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce into the onion mixture; simmer until sauce is thickened, stirring frequently, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.
