Lamb gravy is a rich, flavorful sauce typically made by combining the drippings from cooked lamb with a thickening agent like flour or cornstarch, along with broth or water for consistency. Seasonings such as garlic, rosemary, thyme, and sometimes onions are added to enhance its savory profile, making it a staple in traditional British and Mediterranean cuisines. While lamb gravy is a comforting complement to roasted meats and potatoes, its nutritional value depends on preparation. Lamb drippings may contain saturated fats, which should be moderated for heart health. Homemade versions allow for healthier substitutions such as low-sodium broths and minimal added fats. Despite its indulgent nature, lamb gravy can provide small amounts of iron, protein, and B vitamins from the meat juices. However, moderation is key to balancing its rich flavor with a healthier diet.
