3-Ingredient Brown Gravy Potato Bake

This 3-Ingredient Brown Gravy Potato Bake is the definition of simple comfort food. It’s warm, filling, and full of rich, savory flavor—perfect for busy days when you want something homemade without spending hours in the kitchen. With just a few basic ingredients, you can create a dish that tastes like it took much more effort.

🧾 Ingredients

• 1.2 kg potatoes (about 6–7 medium), peeled and thinly sliced
• 2 packets brown gravy mix
• 500 ml hot water
• (Optional: butter, salt, pepper)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1️⃣ Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and lightly grease a baking dish.

2️⃣ In a bowl, mix the brown gravy packets with hot water. Whisk until smooth and slightly thick. This will be your rich, flavorful sauce.

3️⃣ Arrange a layer of thinly sliced potatoes in the baking dish. Pour a small amount of gravy over the layer so the slices are coated.

4️⃣ Repeat the layering process—potatoes, then gravy—until all ingredients are used. Finish with gravy on top so everything stays moist while baking.

5️⃣ Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 45 minutes. This step allows the potatoes to soften and absorb the gravy.

6️⃣ Remove the foil and bake for another 10–15 minutes until the top is slightly golden and the sauce thickens.

7️⃣ Let the dish rest for 5–10 minutes before serving. This helps the gravy settle and improves texture.

🍽️ Serving Tip

Serve hot with roasted chicken, beef, or a simple salad. You can also add cheese on top for a richer twist.
