METHOD
Why It Works
A quick butter-and-flour roux builds a silky gravy in minutes. Simmering the pork right in the gravy keeps it moist and soaks the bread underneath.
Quick Fixes
Gravy too thick: thin with a splash more broth.
Gravy lumpy: whisk constantly while adding the broth.

Avo's Tip
Use leftover pork roast here — it's the perfect way to turn extra roast into a second meal.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before you start cooking.
• What pork works best?
Leftover Garlic Herb Pork Roast or any sliced pork roast works well here.
• Can I use mashed potatoes instead of bread?
Yes. Spoon the pork and gravy over mashed potatoes for a true hot-plate version.
• Can I make the gravy ahead?
Yes. Store it separately and reheat gently before combining with the pork.
