Oh yes thank you !, I just made this for my sausage and mash ..Delicious, I’m 85 and have recently had to do my own catering sadly,but that really was the bee’s knee’s.
I made onion gravy tonight to put over brown rice and meatloaf. Turned out well; used a bouillon cube and a bit of corn starch to thicken. Looked very like.
I made a French onion beef and pasta casserole but the pasta sucked up a lot of the moisture so I made your onion gravy and put a ladle over each piece of the casserole to serve and it was delicious! Thank you for the recipe 😊
I made this gravy today to go with a meatloaf and it turned out very well. It's basic. I wish I had of known about this recipe long ago as I could have used it over and over. Thank you for the recipe.
THAT"S going over my next Sunday dinner: Liver with mashed potatoes and green beans. Maybe a slice or two of good bakery Rye to sop up that extra gravy. And it's only Monday!
Hi Rik, I have just made this for our dinner tonight. My goodness it tastes amazing, I can't wait for my son to get home so we can eat our Bangers mash and gravy. Thank you very much.
I just finished off two hamburger patties topped with onion gravy and home made mashed potatoes with the gravy on them and mixed vegetables it made a pretty good dinner. I will definitely make the onion gravy again in the near future maybe with some steak or beef liver.
People are pulling your leg about you saying that onion gravy needs onions, but I don't think a lot of people realise there is so much processed stuff in bought gravy packets or some of the awful "gravy" served with meals. Keep up the good work.
Beef liver and onion gravy tonight for tea, with mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli. Asked the butcher for lamb liver but he gave us beef, so that will be a first for me since I was a kid.
@@BackyardChef Hi after checking other recipes out plain flour is what is used I am a newb at this Cooking and is due to retirement, I have never tasted gravy like it before it was amazing.
Hi rik i love onion gravy but haven't attempted to make it myself. I found the ingredients but couldn't find how to cook it. I do apologise if it's there somewhere and i just can't see it. That looked absolutely delicious. Nice and thick just how a gravy should be.
Good recipe. I nearly got unreasonably angry when you added the oil and shouted inside my head- where is the butter? But you saved the day. Nearly the same as my method but I add a bit of red wine, no sugar and caramelise the onions for half an hour to an hour. The only reason I add the red wine is so I can drink a glass while I stir the onions. We have either one glass or two glass onion gravy in our house.
Sounds like a great plan Oliver - Red wine here in Thailand is expensive for a decent one - there are some very cheap (Balsamic vinegar tasting) ones. I'm glad you make a good gravy - there is nothing better than a real gravy complimenting your meal. best, Rik
This gravy looks great, I wish I could have a taste or at least smell it. I'm a bloke who enjoys cooking so I enjoyed watching this: no extraneous BS glorifying yourself, just simple and straight to the point. I've got some snags in the fridge: when I cook them with mashed potatoes and pees you can guess what kind off sauce will accompany them. Champion!
Your videos are sheer torture. I'm watching this gravy being made way after dinner and I'm watering at the mouth. I'll have to make this onion gravy tomorrow. I just can't wait.
@@BackyardChef thank you so so much, I have now made my hubby your delicious onion gravy, I wasn't confident I could make or do this, but pleased to say it came so delicious, hubby is over the moon and enjoyed, once again Thank you so much for sharing, I'm doing another batch tomorrow😊, ,
OK, so..... I watched this video last night before I cooked my meatloaf, While my meatloaf was in the oven, I made this recipe of onion gravy for my mashed taters and meatloaf. I will NOT use a packet again!!!..... I had to come back again today to tell EVERYONE that this is the BEST gravy EVER!!!! It turned out SOOOO good!!!!! And that's even saying and knowing that there's a LOT of great gravy packets out there, BUT, there's not one THIS good!!!!!!
Personally - I cover them for the first 5/10 mins so they steam first so they get soft, then whip the lid off for another 5 mins so they caramelise up nicely instead of burning.
Being sarcastic? Oh, sure, because that's always the best way to make progress and win friends. Who needs clarity and understanding when you can just be witty? How many gravies have you had, and they are water - Put the onions in - onion gravy. Best, Rik
My first husband was anti onion. I did not make the same mistake the second time. Onion gravy on meatloaf and in a well of mashed potatoes next to it is food for the gods.
3 quick questions and a statement. Should this be thick? Should it be glossy? Should it have onions? It's really good, used it with bangers and mash and the gravy was the real banger.
the full recipe is in the description - Ingredients 2 onions ½ tbsp brown sugar 1 tbsp unsalted butter 1 tbsp oil 2 cups of beef stock - made from cubes - stock - granules 2 tbsp flour 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce ½ tsp salt ½ tsp black pepper Best, Rik
I love onions. And this whole damn time there was an onion gravy? Thank god for the Brit’s. Made my morning with something so simple.

I used your recipe for onion gravy and added caramelized mushrooms to it. It turned out wonderful.
Thank you. Best, Rik
Excellent. Made it this week. Everyone was most impressed and it was so easy. Thankyou.
Thanks, Sue. Best, Rik

They can pull away - most folks cant cook who comment - most gravies if you eat out have a minimal amount of onion - ridiculous! Thank you. Best, Rik
Xmas 21, Xmas 22, and every Sunday in between -I have made your magnificent gravy, thank you 😁
Cheers Randy appreciate the feedback. Best, Rik

A small squirt of tomatoe puree works wonders with this method of onion gravy 😋

Can i use self raising flour or cornflour instead of plain flour?
Corn flour will thicken it too much. Thank you. Best, Rik
i just subed, thank you for your wonderful channel.
Thank you Gary - best, Rik
Nice, thanks!
Personally - I cover them for the first 5/10 mins so they steam first so they get soft, then whip the lid off for another 5 mins so they caramelise up nicely instead of burning.
That'd be good over a burger patty or a piece of meat loaf.😋
Thank you. Best, Rik
Hi Rick if I don’t have brown sugar can I just use normal sugar please - gonna make this today mate 🙏🙏
Yes indeed! Thank you. Best, Rik
Excellent video, I don't know why you don't use real stock though
Do most people? I would if others would take the time to make. Best, Rik
Thank for that tip at the beginning I didn't no onion gravy should have onions in it.

i do pretty much the same but add some port
Thanks ,my soon will literally lick the plate….😂💐
Thank you. Best, Rik
Do you have to add the Sugar ?, + I just thicken up with a tad more Flour, its lush 👌
It helps with caramelization that's all . So no if you do not want to. Best, Rik
