I've made proper gravy hundreds of times but last night it was a complete disaster!
i skimmed 90% of the fat off as usual but when i added the flour it turned into a gloopy glue consistency, the more flour i added the gloopier it got.
i tried adding water and it went like watered down gloopy glue, i gave it a sniff and instead of smelling a chickeny aroma it smelt, well, just odd.
any ideas what caused this? could they have injected something into the chicken to bulk it up and charge more
it was an £8 free range chicken from Tesco.
luckily i had some emergency bisto in the cupboard.
