gravy - thick or thin
 
every sunday there is a heated discussion in my house ,about the quality of the lunchtime gravy , i think it should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon ,the opposing view is it should be as thin as possible ,what are your views

Oh come on grow up there is no need for that. Take a look around a bit more and you will see this is a community that discusses many things.

To OP I like both so it depends what am eating. I think diffrent gravy's can fit diffrent meals well :) Plus a change is always nice.

Depends.

Thick and stick on things like chips, and on or in pies. Thick and stick is also best on heavier meats (nicely cooked beef).

Thinner is better for chicken and more delicate meats in my opinion.

If anyone needs a great recipe for the best gravy for lamb let me know. Though I do need recipes for any other types. Hint hint.....

I voted for "No gravy".

Can't stand it.

I don't mind either way as long as I don't have to cut it with a knife. :)

Nither too thin or too thick. In between.

It has to be thin enough to be soaked up by the roast potatoes and yorkshire puddings.

who voted for 'other' - what is this other?! :confused:

I love gravy, not too thick, but definately thick as opposed to gravy you can see through that you get in some pubs and restaurants!

And I have to say - I honestly can't tell the difference between asda's smartprice one + bisto. ;)

I clicked other because as I said before depends what am having it with. Maybe an option for both would of been better.

On the runny side but not watery transparent. Preferably made with some red wine of course :D
