Instructions

  1. Warm oil in a saucepan over low heat. Add flour and whisk until both oil and flour turn into a smooth paste, about a minute.
  2. Gradually add water while continuously stirring to make sure no lumps will form. Add broth cube, ground pepper, and soy sauce and bring to a simmer while stirring to avoid bottom from burning. 
  3. Once it starts to thicken, turn off heat. It will continue to thicken while the sauce is hot. Transfer to a bowl or gravy boat and serve while warm.  

Notes

  • You may use 1 tablespoon butter instead of oil for added creaminess by adding it when it starts to boil.
