YUMMMMM! I served this over a baked chicken breast for myself and over roast pork for the rest of the family. Dad gave it 11 out of 10! A really easy, and yummy (did I mention that already) sauce. Added a bit of wine when the flour went in as it was sticking - other than that followed the recipe. Yum - thank you sooo much sussan- a real keeper!!!!
