If you're a lover of caramelised onion gravy, you're sure to love this slightly sweet Medjool date gravy. It's made with red wine and beef stock for an ultra-luxurious take on a standard British gravy. It works with beef, of course, but is also delicious over anything from duck confit to a classic turkey.
Add the butter to a pan over medium heat. Once melted, add the onion and garlic and cook down until softened, about 10-15 minutes
Add the red wine and Medjool dates, then simmer for 10 minutes to reduce
Add the beef stock and herbs, then simmer for 15 more minutes
If you prefer a thicker gravy, dissolve the flour in a few tablespoons of water or extra beef stock, and then whisk it into the gravy. Cook out until the gravy is thickened to your liking, then season to taste with salt and pepper
