5 stars! I prepared with ease last night and had for lunch today and it was just as good leftover. I served with rice and english peas. I followed the suggestion of adding water and flour for more gravy. I will make this again and again. It smells heavenly too.

Delicious! The only change I made was to add white wine to the pan, instead of water. I think some sliced mushrooms would be a fantastic addition, as well.

Used thicker boneless pork chops and it turned out amazing. Served it with some veggie rice, which made it the perfect weeknight supper. You'll love it!

Very good, lots of flavor. I added chicken stock paste and mixed with the sauce. Added some flour to thicken. Could also make it with chicken. Would make again.

The sirloin chops were tender and the first time I had made gravy from a rue since my grandmother showed me. My gravy was never as good her as hers. However, this recipe made me smack my lips. Even low sodium. Thanks for sharing.
