I made a roast beef a few days ago and tried to make gravy. It didn't turn out.

I made a roast chicken tonight and called my mom for advice about gravy before I tried again. It didn't turn out.

I know you add flour to the juices from the meat and mix it together over a burner. The first time I tried it I just used flour, but it clumped together. The second time, my mom recommended mixing water and flour together and then pouring it in with the meat juices while mixing it together. I don't know why it didn't work because I've seen it work for her dozens of times.

My girlfriend told me to try cornstarch and water next time. I'm not sure when next time will be, but I thought I'd get some more ideas before tackling it again.

Thanks in advance!
