Method
- Melt the Spreadable in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the rosemary and thyme and cook until fragrant. Add the flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until mixture bubbles and thickens.
- Gradually stir in wine and stock. Bring to the boil and cook, stirring, until gravy thickens. Strain gravy into a serving jug.
More Tips
- You can replace the white wine with an extra ½ cup of stock if you prefer a non-alcoholic gravy.
- You can also swap out the Spreadable for Western Star Original Salted Butter if you like.

Avoid a "floury" white sauce
At the beginning of a white sauce always cook off the butter and flour over low heat for 1 minute to ensure the finished sauce doesn’t have a “floury” flavour. Remove from the heat before whisking in milk and returning back to the heat to thicken.
