Thick gravey(home made, bacon fat roux ), lots of curds, & fries a little over cooked so they hold up better to the gravey.
Strained it so it be lump free.

I just drooled on myself. That gravy looks intensely yum with that deep colour. Looks like a home run from here.

Dark gravey is hit & miss. The longer you cook the roux the more dark it becomes & a more nutty flavor is develops. I like mine pretty dark, but it has a strong flavor to it.

I’ve never made a roux before so I didn’t know that. Sounds like the same thing that happens when you make brown butter. Definitely makes for a great picture, though.

It’s more less the same, but you cook it with flour equal parts each until it firms up & goes to the colour you want. You can use any fat: butter, beef fat, pork fat, etc. Turkey makes for very light gravey, beef yeilds a darker gravey. It’s also base to 90% of sauces, super easy to do.

I say my wife’s cooking has “flavour jackpots” not lumps.
