SOUTHERN EGG GRAVY

Steps:

• Add the turkey fat to a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and saute until translucent. Whisk in the flour and cook until medium golden brown in color, about 3 to 4 minutes. Slowly whisk in pan the drippings with the stock and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat. Simmer until thick or until desired consistency is reached, about 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the chopped egg and season with salt and pepper, to taste, if needed. Serve alongside that big beautiful bird!

EGG GRAVY FOR 2

Steps:

• In a 8 to 10 inch nonstick fry pan. Break both eggs and discard shells.
• Pierce egg yokes and cook egg until whites and yoke are no longer runny.
• You can lightly season eggs with the salt and pepper at this time, if you wish.
• Once finished, remove eggs from pan. Add butter to pan and melt completely.
• With heat on low to medium, Stir in flour slowly until completely incorporated with the butter.
• Next, slowly add in the whipping cream. You may have to smash the butter/flour mixture until this becomes smooth. Continue to watch the heat, you do not want this to boil, yet.
• Last, add the skim milk. Pour in a little at a time and mix thoroughly. At this time you can bring the heat up just a little. You want this mixture to get to a low boil. The boiling process is what will start to thicken the gravy.
• Once it thickens (I do not like super thick gravy) turn down the heat and add your seasoned salt and pepper. You can do one of two things with the eggs that you set aside. You can chop the egg up and throw it back in the gravy or place one egg on each plate and top it with the gravy. I like to do a piece of toast, top with the egg and the smother with the gravy.

TEXAS-STYLE CHICKEN FRIED STEAK WITH CREAM GRAVY

Steps:

• STEAKS:.
• Beat together the egg and milk and set aside.
• Mix together the salt, black pepper, paprika and white pepper and sprinkle on both sides of beef cutlets.
• Dredge the cutlets in the flour, shaking off the excess.
• Then dip each cutlet in the egg/milk mixture, then back in the flour. (You're going to get your hands messy here, so take your rings off.)
• Set cutlets aside on a piece of waxed paper.
• Heat the cooking oil in a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet over medium-high heat for a few minutes.
• Oil should be about a half-inch deep in the pan.
• Check the temperature with a drop of water; if it pops and spits back at you, it's ready.
• With a long-handled fork, carefully place each cutlet into the hot oil.
• Protect yourself (and your kitchen) from the popping grease that results.
• Fry cutlets on both sides, turning once, until golden brown.
• Reduce heat to low, cover and cook 4 or 5 minutes until cutlets are done through.
• Drain cutlets on paper towels.
• CREAMY GRAVY:
• After the cutlets are removed from the pan, pour off all but about 2 tablespoons of oil, keeping as many as possible of the browned bits in the pan.
• Heat the oil over medium heat until hot.
• Sprinkle flour in the hot oil.
• Stir with a wooden spoon or whisk, quickly, to brown the flour.
• Gradually stir in milk and water, mixed together, stirring constantly with the wooden spoon or whisk and mashing out any lumps.
• Lower heat, and gravy will begin to thicken.
• Continue cooking and stirring a few minutes until gravy reaches desired thickness.
• Check seasonings and add more salt and pepper according to your taste.
