One of the best things about eating out at a fried chicken place is the gravy. Fried chicken gravy is like liquid gold. Many of us don’t just dunk or pour the gravy over the fried chicken; we also pour it over our steamed rice like it was soup. (Aminin! We won’t judge!)
However, did you know that you in fact have to buy more gravy, especially if you’re not dining in? At Jollibee, a big container is P25 while at KFC, you have a choice of a regular-sized gravy at P15 or large-sized gravy for P25. At McDonald’s, it’s P10 per small container of gravy.
All the gravy are affordable but when you’re a gravy lover who needs more than just that paltry amount, learning how to make a delicious pot of fried chicken gravy is the same feeling you get if you get a free fried chicken meal: incredibly joyous. Here’s where our restaurant hack gravy recipes will help.
We tried to hack each of the gravy recipes of our favorite fast-food fried chicken places: Jollibee, KFC, and McDonald’s. We believe these are the easy gravy recipes you’ve been looking for. All are easy to make, using ingredients that you probably have at home, plus a few ingredients that might surprise you. (One or two certainly did!)
You will definitely want to give these gravies a try the next time you’re running low on gravy but not on fried chicken, so be ready to grab a saucepan and dish up a cup or two of one of these gravies to satisfy your fried chicken meal gravings at home.
So, if you really are the type who pours gravy on both the chicken and the rice, make these gravy recipes at home so you can do it there, too.
