Ingredients
  

  • 250 g (½ lb) pork sausage
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (adjust to taste)
  • Salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • Heat a skillet over medium heat.
  • Add pork sausage and cook until browned, breaking it into small crumbles.
  • Do not drain the fat—this forms the base of the gravy.
  • Sprinkle flour over the cooked sausage and stir well.
  • Cook for 1–2 minutes to remove raw flour taste.
  • Gradually pour in milk while stirring continuously.
  • Simmer until thick and creamy (5–7 minutes).
  • Add black pepper and adjust salt as needed.
  • Serve hot over biscuits or toast.

Notes

  • Use high-quality pork sausage for best flavor.
  • Do not remove all fat—it’s essential for richness.
  • Whole milk gives a creamier texture.
  • Adjust thickness by adding more milk.
  • Freshly ground pepper enhances taste.
  • Stir constantly to avoid lumps.
  • Serve immediately for best results.
  • Can be paired with eggs or potatoes.
