Milk Gravy (Paula Deen)

People talking
My grandmother used to make the BEST milk gravy! She would serve it over chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes. Unfortunatley, I never got her original recipe. I came across this recipe in a "Cooking with Paula Deen" magazine and I think this is very close to what my grandmother used to make!

Initial recipe i made to the T. Was way too thin in the end result, ended up making another batch. What's cooking without altering the recipe a little bit, eh? Only used about 1 1/2-2C of milk and a little more Veggie oil. Also was using frozen chicken(Smite me later) so i had no access to grease etc. Threw in some bacon salt, celery seed, minced onion and the pepper. Tasted delicious, nice country gravy feel to it, but a little thinner. Went well on the potatoes and the chicken.Reply -
Have patience? After 20 minutes of whisking and following the directions to a T...I have nothing more than warm milk with some pepper in it. It will not thicken. I expected more from Paula Deen.Replies 1
