Comments

This recipe was easy to follow and turned out nice. If you like your gravy, double the amount indicated in the recipe. And for those using Rossmore white pepper (as yours truly did)only a dash would do. Otherwise it takes away from the predominately lemony flavour of the dish as is originally intended.
