Chipped Beef Gravy By: Louise P.

Recipe Story

I love to cook and have a twelve-year-old boy with cystic fibrosis. Knowing the challenge most cystic fibrosis patients have getting adequate nutrition, I embraced the challenge to make food that is big on taste, as well as having extra calories to boost nutritional value. I am always creating my own version of recipes as I can always rely on family to be honest when tasting new things. I always say if all three of my children like the same recipe it is always a keeper.

Ingredients

  • 2-3 oz chipped beef
  • 4 Tbsp butter
  • 1/4 c flour
  • 2-3 c half and half or cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Dash of Worcestershire sauce
  • Add All Ingredients

Directions

  1. Cut chipped beef to desired size (approximately 1/2" square).

  2. Melt butter in 10" frying pan.

  3. Add chopped meat to melted butter and heat until chipped beef starts to curl around edges. About 5 to 10 minutes.

  4. Add flour and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes so flour doesn't taste raw.

  5. Slowly add half and half or cream and dash of Worcestershire sauce.

  6. Stir constantly over medium heat until mixture comes to boil and thickens. If it is too thick add more liquid.

  7. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve over buttered toast or biscuits.
