Balsamic vinegar gravy

Recipe review

Glorious!

4.8/5 A lot of work to make gravy but the effort is rewarded by the great taste. A little goes a long way! Jerry, aka Chef (talk)

This recipe will work without a caramelised roasting tray, but it won't be as rich or as tasty. However, it does not have to be a meat roast. Roast vegetables work just as well. The vegetables shown were roasted with lots of garlic and cumin seeds so the resulting gravy had a delicious and unique flavour.
