A rich homemade gravy using fried red onions and a generous splash of red wine. You’ll often find us serving this with roast dinners, pies or our favourite vegan sausages.
We often make this a few hours ahead and simply reheat on the hob when we’re getting ready to serve.
If you want to avoid using wine, we suggest adding a splash of balsamic vinegar. Taste and add more as you go until the gravy is to your liking.
You can easily make this gluten-free by using gluten-free flour.
