This is a simple and quick red onion gravy recipe that you’ll hopefully turn to time and time again, adding delicious comforting richness to your Toad in the Hole, your Sunday Roasts or your Shepherd’s Pies. I would say getting your gravy just right probably takes about 20-30 minutes, but bear in mind that while it’s cooking, usually there’s a main dish being cooked at the same time, so it’s not really much of a stretch. That said, you could always make a big batch of onion gravy ahead of time and freeze portions for when you need it, which would be perfect for those meals you’ve defrosted alongside them for a midweek win, or maybe if you’re having a pre-prepared dish like a pie, for example. Here I will show you how to make Onion Gravy that’s super simple but also has a little something extra.
Why you’ll love this Onion Gravy recipe
⭐️ Full of rich flavour ⭐️ Easy and quick ⭐️ Can be made ahead In the freezer This recipe freezes well. Just wait until it’s totally cold and then put into a freezer proof container in portions and freeze for up to 3 months. Defrost thoroughly before reheating in the microwave or on the hob. If you want the onions to stay in nice neat pieces as they cook, cut them in half moons root to tip (like in my prep photo). If you cut them the opposite way, they tend to disintegrate more.
