So very delish! I made it exactly as written to go with a vegetarian loaf and we all loved it.

    We were really impressed with your onion gravy thanks Terese. I usually cheat and make mine with well cooked onion and a demi glaze mix I have. It's good, but nothing compared to this recipe. I used both optional ingredients as we love them and served this over very big and beautiful T-Bone steaks and truuffled mash potatoes.

    I cut the recipe in half, as we're two people. I used red onions and beef broth. I served it over ground beef patties and mashed potatoes. It was absolutely DELICIOUS!!!! Thanks for posting it.

    I got this recipe from a different source and was going to post it myself. I use this when I make "bangers & mash" and it makes the BEST gravy for that. I typically brown my sausages in the butter first, remove them, cook the onions until tender, then add in all the remaining ingredients plus put the sausages back in to cook slowly for nice long time. I highly recommend this recipe. I usually use two red onions and one very large yellow onion.
