gimme gravy tonight

i have leftover take-out fried chicken.
to me, fastfood chicken is only good with gravy. thus, i made gravy.
i got the recipe off the internet and did a little improvisation.  taste-wise, it was excellent.

i really need to work on my presentation, though. next time, i'll lay off the cornstarch.

but at least, i have expanded my culinary skills beyond sticking stuff in the microwave oven for two minutes.


My version of the recipe (i don't measure, by the way)

Ingredients:
butter
pepper
allspice
milk
water
Knorr chicken cube
cornstarch (depending how thick you want the gravy to be)

Dissolve the chicken cube in about a cup of boiling water.  Set aside.
In the same pot, melt butter.  Add cornstarch, then the broth and throw in everything else.

I plan on using the extra gravy for fries tomorrow, something i experimented on, by the way.  Which is a  post for another day.

Now, to eat dessert!
