Instructions
- Cook the ground pork in a skillet over medium-heat.
- As the pork browns, add the ginger, sage, salt and pepper.
- Once the pork is crumbled and browned, remove it from the skillet to a bowl and set aside.
- You'll needs about 3 tablespoons of fat in the skillet after you cook the meat. If your pork is lean, you may need to add tablespoons of butter to equal about 3 tablespoons total of fat.
- In the skillet over medium heat, add flour to drippings/butter and mix it well.
- Slowly add the warm milk, whisking constantly until the gravy starts to thicken, about 10-15 minutes.**
- Add the sausage back into the skillet and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the sausage gravy simmer for 3-5 minutes, stirring often.
- Serve warm over hot biscuits.
Notes
- *If the gravy is not getting as thick as you'd like, whisk together two teaspoons of cornstarch and two teaspoons of water in a small cup. Drizzle the mixture into the gravy and stir. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the gravy has thickened.
- **The calories shown are based on the recipe making about 4 cups of gravy, with 1 serving being 1/2 cup of gravy. Since different brands of ingredients have different nutritional information, the calories shown are just an estimate.
