This beef gravy recipe is easy to make and a perfect with a Sunday roast. I’ve had great results and plenty of compliments about this recipe from people that have tried it.

Ingredients

After you've cooked your roast beef, pour the fat from your roasting pan, leaving about 2 tablespoons. Add the shallots and cook until they are brown on the edges.

Stir in the flour and cook for 2 minutes or until brown.

Add the wine, vinegar, stock and tomato paste. Bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 5 minutes or until the sauce is thick and glossy
