KFC Gravy - any of you clowns ever attempted it?

[rjo333]

We have all seen the 'copycat' recipes being banded round the internet. Have any of you ever attempted to cook it?

[toasty]

Not tried making it but it is the sauce of the gods for chips when you've had a few too many.

[Tahiti]

In my extensive experience, the gravy varies per "restaurant" anyway.

[Sump]

That's genuinely the crappest thing to copy.

It varies in the same "restaurant"!

Sure does, I had a carton in my local KFC and even tipping it upside down would not release it

[Pferdestarke]

Clowns?

Cheeky fker!

[anonymous-user]

I can't see the appeal personally. I had some with one of those box meals the other day and it was tasteless gloop. Not impressed at all.

[Rick101]

Most rave about it but i'm not that impressed.

Might me a recipe in the 'Takeaway Secret' book.

Prefer BBQ sauce myself.

Nothing wrong with a bit of KFC gravy. When you make your own you'll notice that you're not deviating too far from one of the 'mother' sauces of classic French cookery, -the Velouté.

It's basically reduced stock thickened with a decent roux. You can add a few flavourings along the way, -the Wagamama katsu curry sauce is not too different bar the addition of a few spices.

Why can't we get a tub of mash like in the states???

Chicken, mash and gravy. How can it fail??

[eybic]

Their beans are amazing too imho.

I always have coleslaw. However, I WOULD like to know the secret ingredients in Le Relais de Venise L'Entrecote's green steak sauce.

i love kfc gravy and the beans, those and a few hot wings and i am a happy bunny. not keen on the normal chicken pieces though. very bland and pretty much tasteless after you get past the often soggy coating.

[GG89]

It's hit and miss. Sometimes it's made with the chicken drippings (when it's at its best) IMO.

Other times it's just granulated and not so tasty.

Never tried making it but I do enjoy it from time to time.

I had this a couple of weeks ago and took it back. Disgusting you would've had to scoop it on to your chips.

I checked the first and second Takeaway Secret books and can't spot it in either - I would imagine it would be something like:

1. Take one chicken stock cube
2. Mix with PVA glue

I do like it though
