  6. __________________________________________________________
  7. ENRICHED GRAVY FOR ALL MEATS AND VEGETABLES

  9. simmer for a few minutes, then add the butter.

  16. Dissolve the stock cube in the water.
  17. Add to the pan used for cooking the chicken.
  18. Simmer for a few minutes then stir in the cream, heat for another minute.
  19. The cream helps to thicken the gravy.
  20. This recipe adds 10g of fat to the meal.
  21. __________________________________________________________
  22. EASY CHEESE SAUCE
  23. Gently heat the cream and then add the cheese and mustard.
  24. Stir well until hot and melted.
  25. If you prefer a slightly thinner sauce, add a few mls more of hot water.
  26. This recipe adds 25g of fat, 4g protein and 0.06g carb to the meal so may need to be counted.
  27. __________________________________________________________

  33. This recipe has a total of 47.6g fat, 4g protein and 0.12g carb so will need to be counted.
  34. Mo’s tip: This can be served hot as a pudding, or with another recipe. It is also nice cold. Great for a trifle.
