Rich Beef Gravy

Directions

1. 1
   Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-based frying pan. Add in the bones and brown on all sides for 10-15 minutes, stirring now and then. We're caramelizing and roasting the bones to bring out their flavour.
2. 2
   Add in the onion to the pan and fry for 5 minutes, stirring often, until the onion has softened.
3. 3
   Carefully tilt the frying pan to one side to gather any excess fat and spoon it off and discard it.
4. 4
   Add 900ml of boiling water to a Knorr Rich Beef Stock Pot and whisk or stir in until the Knorr Rich Beef Stock Pot has dissolved.
5. 5
   Add the Knorr Rich Beef Stock to the pan. Bring to a rolling boil and cook until the gravy reduces by just under half, skimming off any fat that comes to the surface, around 20 minutes. I like the texture like this. If you want to make it thicker, then simply add some cornflour mixed with a little cold water into a paste. It's down to your palate at the end of the day.
6. 6
   Strain through a fine-meshed sieve, return to a pan and heat through before serving. It's a small price to pay for a delicious gravy - a few bones, an onion an a Knorr Rich Beef Stock Pot.
