Jamie’s Get Ahead Gravy

[@duallove6909]

Ouuh my god you are just the sweetest family. And that petal is such a daddy's girl already!. God bless you all and Merry Christmas.

[@WildCampingWelshman]

I have used this exact recipe for a few years now. Never fails to impress and no stress on the big day. Thank you Jamie.

[@TheSlipperyOtter]

Made this for Christmas last year. Best gravy I've ever had. Went perfectly well with the turkey. I made it a week in advance and froze it, so all I had to do was defrost and heat. Definitely going to do it again this year.

[@xxxXHarveyXxxx]

just making some now. when did u take it out to defrost?

[@Murphystar]

@@xxxXHarveyXxxx Not sure but it’s defrosted now 😂🙌

[@whatsyourstory5076]

the year before@@xxxXHarveyXxxx

[@ParisP2012]

This gravy is perfect to make before x-mas. I have done it in so many years now. Thanks Jamie

[@ZeldaFitz]

I make this about a month before Christmas and freeze it down, fantastic recipe and always goes down a treat.

[@breannamack2258]

Love Jamie! He's such a merry chef, loving father and husband, always brining joy & enjoyment watching his show! God bless you and your family!

[@DM-pv8ib]

This has been shortened. There's a good tip in the longer version where he says the longer you cook it on the hob before adding flour the richer the flavour, and if I'm not mistaken, he also adds port to deglaze

[@JP-sm1zv]

Good to know thank you!

[@anon5500]

I use red wine but near enough the same, and yes dry as sensibly poss before adding fluids, and I use chicken and veg stock made from scratch (bought from a local company as cheaper than making it!🤷‍♂️😂) Turns out epic every time!👌🏻😉

[@annemccoll9490]

Recipe also calls for cranberry sauce

[@DM-pv8ib]

This is true, and star anise but I swerve those!

[@marymadigan1416]

Mine never quite looks as dark as Jamie’s. I never know why!

[@lisasharples5654]

Jamie...you never cease to amaze me with your natural humour, the love for your family and such a wonderful passion for food. Wishing you a very happy Christmas....so glad I got to meet you in Toronto!...

[@andyperkin2103]

I use this recipe every year. Nice and easy and taste great 😋

[@98072229z]

This recipe worked brilliantly to get ahead of the busy Christmas Day lunch. I actually used the wings and giblets from the turkey on the same day I picked it up (got the Butcher to joint it as required). I was worried about making a good gravy for the big day but this was foolproof and very tasty!

[@ajamjar]

Thank you for all you’ve done and all you do. This Foodtube has taught me to be a better more confident cook, and is on hand whenever I need to refresh my memory on something like.. gravy! Thank you for sharing your life with us, Jamie. Right! I’m off to make gravy!!

[@pammipayne3334]

Perfect gravy, no stress no omg I forgot to do the gravy and a cute baby... what else can you ask for in a video cook-up. Fantastic. This year (2022) I have 2 grandsons to please. I will need this gravy hack!!! they hate to wait for food so thanks Jamie, life saver.

[@WhirledPeace]

The end was my favourite.. "And that was caught on camera damn it!" "She's only human" : )

Just made this gravy for the very first time - absolutely delicious and easy to make!

[@hippeastrum]

The best gravy ever! Have made this for quite a few Christmas dinners now.

[@geoffaitken]

Just made it, totally easy, totally stress free. Amazing flavour.

[@phoenixsong8]

the fact that they both share this little cowlick in the front of their heads is just the most precious thing ever.

[@MrsG66]

I made this Christmas Eve and added to turkey juices on Christmas Day and it was THE most amazing gravy. Will be doing this every year now. It really is the best 👍 Thanks Jamie

[@isabelmartins4212]

Yes, I think I'll do that the day before using it. Thank you. You have a lovely family. Best wishes for you, from Portugal.

[@whtwht]

Trying this for the first time this year. Looking fwd to it😊

[@RainbowGardens]

Sooo cute @ 1:45 Funny ending ....:))) Oh, and the gravy looked fabulous...

[@acciocake1034]

If he just said his daughters name was Petal that may be the cutest thing I've ever heard. I mean really. I can't get over it.

[@assassintwinat8]

[@acciocake1034]

assassintwinat8 That's amazing!

[@hannahplas2495]

Accio Cake love your profile name!

[@thatgirlliza8023]

Making this now! Every year I make it! It’s fab! Add the Turkey giblets too!

[@buddytherat533]

I watched Jamie Oliver making this gravy years ago, I made my own once lol and I could not believe it It was amazing but Jamie's looks delicious , lovely jubbly 😋

[@Karina-ty6ij]

I have been making this for years now brilliant 😊

[@MrBillfinn]

Aaawww that' baby is saying " am not eating that shite you promised me dinner at the ramsays this year"

[@susanhinga4695]

Haha

[@dismalsage]

mrs oliver and petal are both so beautiful. best wishes to them and buddy for the holiday

[@ActuallyDoubleGuitars]

I don't know but I would imagine, a stress free gravy would involve, the adding of water to gravy granules ;)

[@Fletcher902]

Doing it the night before makes it stress free. You put all the ingredients in a tray, let them cook, add water and you're done! Pretty stress free if you ask me!

[@ActuallyDoubleGuitars]

Fletcher902 I was only joking.

[@favouritegravy5563]

:)

[@bazman357]

But alot less flavour.

[@ActuallyDoubleGuitars]

@@bazman357 Depends where you get it.

[@cesarbattistini]

The baby is so cute!!

[@skad4]

Baby is no longer a baby though. This was from his Christmas special a few years ago :)

[@quitebald]

This is a perfect recipe for an American Thanksgiving feast (sorry Brits). I use this every year as my go-to gravy and it is superb.

[@moniquejohnson8427]

So gorgeous! I enjoyed watching the family together more than anything quite honestly. I wonder how the gravy tasted. 😋

[@AngiePyott]

So on that today. Thanks to you and your lovely ladies! Xx

[@blargh51]

We make this every year since we saw the Christmas Special it was in a few years ago. It's done and in the freezer already!

[@awolfcat]

Been doing this for 6 years and currently doing a batch right now for Xmas. I do a batch in slow cooker as well so u can Do plenty.

[@paksta]

Just here to say thanks! I’ve never cooked a fully decent meal in my life - like never - but I’ve been YouTubing this channel today to cook a try and cook a Christmas Eve dinner for my new family (newborn + foreign mum-in-law) and I absolutely nailed it. Took me three hours but it was objectively delicious. Thanks! I think I just learned to enjoy cooking. Merry Christmas!

[@lienbijs1205]

Oh, may I ask how come that you never cooked a full meal? I mean, did somebody else always cook for you?

[@TheCardinal365]

omg 14 chicken wings! makes me wanna cry... wanna hope its the most delicious gravy ever!

[@saralyndley]

My first time making this this year, after my friend raved about it! Great video thank you Jamie. Happy Christmas everyone!

[@michaelfisher9760]

Today is get ahead gravy day! 🦃

[@racey1979]

It's a good gravy, I've made it a few times with a few adjustments. Try including a few turkey parts if you do have them, such as the neck and giblets, I also use chicken stock as opposed to water. The only other thing I change is I put the herbs in at the 2nd stage when you add the liquid, I really don't see the point in adding it to the pan and roasting it for an hour when all it does is burn and there is nothing left of it. I put the garlic in with about 10 minutes left to roast, as this also burns if you roast it for an hour.

[@noahwayne7095]

lucky man, you have a beautiful family. and that gravy looks awesome

[@lindahannan4287]

Love this gravy!!!! I make it every year. It's the best x

[@blondiesque_8237]

i've made this two christmasses ago, its amazing!! going to make it again tomorrow for our post Christmas potluck watching this to refresh my memory get ur wings n bacon n celery n etc etc ready!

[@shonacourt9750]

Aahh I have made this for the past few christmasses. It's an excellent recipe you can make ahead. Trust me 😀

[@woodrush16]

Then i must be doing something wrong..because mine made to this recipe tastes bland.

[@boyeyob1]

You're family is beautiful Jamie :)

[@troyzarb8877]

ffs

[@Blaze23557]

@@troyzarb8877 😆

[@mikeward9039]

Made this today but used white wine and chicken stock rather than water ... it’s delicious can’t wait to add to the turkey juices Christmas Day ✌🏻

[@bcent5758]

I also add wine and chicken stock and a little bit of cranberry sauce then reduce to burn off the alcohol and thicken.

[@flowerbombdiamond]

I make this every year!

[@piratelegends1722]

We can put everything in a sauce pan and cook it for an hour or half an hour.Its a good and very healthy recipi.

[@traceystoneman1922]

Love Jamie and his gorgeous family ❤️💁🏻

[@assassintwinat8]

I really need a masher... and a daughter :D -i'm 20 though so papa's in no hurry-

[@tawkischeap1]

assassintwinat8 cute lol

[@monikamoore4173]

I did the exact recipe.... love it... thank you

[@davidv.8655]

This is a Fantastic recipe from Mr one ingredient too many Jamie Oliver. Well his one ingredient you DONT want in this one, is star of anise. Not unless you want liquorice flavoured gravy. I had to throw the first batch down the sink. Other than that this is chicken gravy heaven.

[@blueberryfuzz406]

Aww bless, she is super cute :D As is your whole Family ofc x

[@kerrymoore5146]

Very tasty, will probably leave the star anise out next time though

[@ZeldaFitz]

Kerry Moore Totally agree, it makes it way too sweet & sickly.

[@AmritaOSullivan]

Literally anytime I'm looking for a recipe I end up using one of Jamie Oliver s ones! Like today I told myself il try something else but no I'm back here!! Basically what I'm trying to say is that it never tried one of ur recipes that has not been yummy and simple!!

[@Mr_Perrys]

Going to give this a bash today...hope its pukka.... Merry christmas to all x

Merry Christmas 🎅

[@lorenda79]

Looks amazing! Thanks for sharing.

[@zarshyg]

petal is such an adorable name!!

[@thetobyjonesshow2126]

This gravy is amazing xx

[@BooRadleyTube]

Go easy on the carrots and celery. If you're using the "mashing" technique you end up with a kind of carrot/celery puree which in my experience diluted and sweetened the rich flavour of the gravy.

[@TheMatthewmole]

To make things even better I'd grab a few of those chicken wings and strip them of meat, get a few bits of the roasted bacon, throw it all between 2 slices of fresh cut bread and enjoy whilst the gravy stews!

[@lisafalardeau1823]

how in the hell is this stress free gravy?? lmao

[@4kvat]

+lisa falardeau Because it does not cause stress?

[@lisafalardeau1823]

looks like a ton of work to me

[@VeeraJuvonen]

+lisa falardeau Indeed, especially when he also has a screaming baby in the kitchen.

[@WPB626]

+lisa falardeau You look like the type of girl who gets everything done for her anyway ,so I wouldn't worry about it

[@lisafalardeau1823]

Ya, that's why I'm looking for recipes on how to make a gravy, cause I don't do things for myself. Nice assumption based from someone who doesn't even have a picture of themselves.

[@arashnateghian5955]

When I transfer to the hob do I take the bones out the chicken or keep them in there.

[@lynnclark4182]

Merry Xmas And Happy New Year

[@cianmadden9341]

If I want to make half the amount of gravy do I half the ingredients or just put in less flour and water?

[@MrSiddiqwira]

Now get those chicken wings and stir fried 'em in hot sauce with a handful of fries and enjoy with a plate of steaming rice.. Lovely!!

[@yokaly957]

can we replace water by stock to make sure it has enough taste or it become to salty ?

[@jenwhalen6662]

Good lord, super cute. Blink and they grow so fast!!

[@helenparker6554]

Have just made this gravy recipe today, But, how do you get colour into the gravy, smells great but so pale, we don't have gravy Browning over here in Australia ?????

[@ethanjones6795]

The best way I can think of getting extra colour is to add ½ or 1 teaspoon of marmite in it. Not much to overpower the gravy... think it's called Vegemite over in Aus 😀

[@christinabailey5157]

Seems like a waste not to eat the chicken wings...

[@Levitaz4236]

Not if it's for the best gravy ever.

[@christinabailey5157]

The gravy was made with CHICKEN WINGS. Please watch the whole video before you comment.

Cheers Jamie!

[@amsamore3509]

Have to agree....a lot of effort but was enjoyable to make with loved ones....however star anise was a poor choice....waaay too overpowering putting two in....it did give a Christmas taste....Next time we would play with flavours.

[@bambangsibarani2311]

Jamie Oliver life is perfect, he got beautiful wife, cute sons, and the best chef in the world....

[@tashalla01]

Hello Jamie, We love you and your food tube channel here at my house. My boyfriend is a huge fan and follows all you guys daily. Your gravy looks delish. I had a quick question, I live in Canada and I have been looking everywhere for a nice simple old fashioned terracotta salt pig as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend. The only ones I can find however are all in the UK and when I asked about shipping it was going to cost me 100 pounds which is over $150 here. Do you know of anywhere in Canada where I can get one??? Thanks! Love your cooking!

[@udasan]

This looks delicious but...can I not use the bacons at all or replace it with beef bacons? Will it taste the same or close to it? Thank you to anyone that can help me with this! :)

[@LisasMatbloggse]

Looks absolutely wonderful! :)

[@toomanytimestotell]

I have a ceramic electric hob, can I put the roasting tray ontop of one of those to make the gravy?

[@funicats]

+Dann Barr Yes, as long as your roasting tray is thick enough. I also have a ceramic hob and it works very well.

[@aleinav]

Could you add cornstarch to thicken it?

[@colingiz]

love it!

[@THEmaggspie]
