While preparing various dishes, we always try to make them more tasty. Gravy helps us in this , the recipe of which can be selected for every taste. It can be vegetable, meat, fish and mushroom. Most often, white gravy or Bechamel sauce is prepared. Products for its preparation do not require much, and the appearance and taste of the dish are significantly improved.
Everyone remembers its taste, but at home such gravy, as in the school cafeteria or kindergarten, is rarely obtained. And all because at home, we try to add various herbs and roots to this dish to give a unique flavor. In catering, on the contrary, everything is strictly verified. And if in the recipe it is indicated to put only 30 grams of oil, then just so much will be added. But this is not about us. We take into account the peculiarities and tastes of all households. Gravy, the recipe of which almost always changes slightly, is obtained each time with a rich taste and aroma.
Let's look at several options for making gravy. Having cooked ordinary horns, but choosing new gravy for them every day, you will be able to feed your family in a variety of ways for a long time. Do not believe? Let's get a look.
Gravy, meat recipe .
It will take any meat. It can be chicken, beef, pork or rabbit meat. You also need onions, carrots, peppers and salt, vegetable oil and some garlic. Take the number of components at your discretion based on the tastes and availability of products in the refrigerator.
We cut the meat into small pieces, preferably straws. Fry until crusty in oil, then fill with water and leave to stew. The liquid should be exactly as much as it takes to cover the meat. While it is preparing, we peel the vegetables from the peel. Grind onions, carrots, garlic. You can simply cut into strips or mince.
The vegetable mixture must be stewed in vegetable oil, and then added to the meat. Add seasoning to taste. Mix the gravy. If we stop at this, we get liquid gravy. But it can be optionally dull. To do this, take a tablespoon of flour and dilute with water to the consistency of the pancake dough. Pour the resulting liquid in a thin stream into the gravy without stopping stirring. Cook for about five minutes and remove from heat. We insist another ten minutes, put the horns on a plate and pour gravy with meat on top.
Gravy, recipe with seafood.
We need three hundred grams of any fish, two hundred grams of sea cocktail in the freeze, one bell pepper, one onion, four garlic cloves, three tomatoes, a glass of tomato juice, seasoning and salt to taste. First, we clear all vegetables from the peel and seeds, and the fish fillet from bones. Cut the onion in half rings. We turn tomatoes into cubes, and pepper into straws. Pass the garlic through the press.
Fry fish with onions in a Teflon pan without adding oil. We take a small saucepan and pour tomato juice into it . Bring the liquid to a boil and immediately add the frying of fish, sea cocktail, spices and salt. Cook no more than 10 minutes. Add garlic, stir well and remove from heat. Insist under the lid for another ten minutes. Now you can put the horns on portioned plates and pour gravy.
In a similar way, gravy is prepared with mushrooms. We will consider the option of vegetable sauce in a bouillon cube. We need one carrot and onion, one cube, a tablespoon of potato starch and tomato paste and a half glass of water. Peel the onions and carrots from the peel and chop. Fry vegetables in vegetable oil until tender.
In a glass of water we breed a broth cube. Add the solution to the fried vegetables and simmer for about ten minutes. We raise a spoonful of starch with half a glass of water. Pour the mixture and tomato paste into the pan without stopping stirring. Cook the sauce until thick. If you want a uniform gravy, then you should wipe the fried vegetables through a sieve.
