Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ ------------
2 garlic cloves -- minced
1/2 cup yellow onion -- roughly chopped
1/2 cup carrot -- roughly chopped
1/2 cup celery root -- roughly chopped
1 sprig fresh thyme -- large sprig
1 1/2 cups non-fat low-sodium broth -- plus more as needed
salt and freshly-ground black pepper
Combine the garlic, onion, carrot, celery root, thyme sprig and chicken broth in a large saucepan over high heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste, cover, and bring to a boil. Then reduce the heat and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 12 minutes.
Remove the thyme sprig. Pour the contents of the pot into a blender container. Being careful of steam buildup in the blender, blend the mixture until it is smooth, adding a little more broth if necessary to achieve a gravy consistency. Serve, or store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Makes 2 1/2 cups (10 one-quarter cup servings).

AuthorNote: Most gravies are made from meat juices and a thickener called "roux", a 50/50 combination of pure fat - like lard or butter - and white flour. This flourless, butterless gravy can be used as a stand-alone sauce for almost any roast [favorite] - and even some [cFavorite].
