    This is the best ready made base gravy I ever used. It’s convenient and saves so much preparation time. The portion size per packet is just right. It’s neutral enough to allow you to be creative with your own works of culinary art.

  10. Dean T. (verified buyer) –

    Excellent.. gives a great bir taste. Mix as instructed and you can’t go wrong. If you’re going to make a balti I’d recommend using akni stock instead of plain water for added aromatics.
