Salmon Gravy over Red Potatoes

Ingredients:
3 tbl butter
4-5 tbl flour
3-4 cups milk
1 can salmon
10-12 red potatoes, medium
onion powder, to taste
garlic powder, to taste
2 tbl pepper, or to taste
1/2 tbl salt, or to taste

Directions:
Drain salmon juices from can completely. If possible, use red salmon - pink is too mushy, king and silver are not as tasty. Place butter in the pan and melt it. Add flour and make a white sauce. Gradually add milk with wisk until you get a cream sauce. Add salmon, salt, and pepper. Mash salmon so that there are no big chunks. If you need more liquid, add more milk. Let it simmer down the milk, especially if you're using 1% or Skim, and add more as it needs it.

While the salmon gravy cooks, boil potatoes in pot. Strain when soft, mash individual servings on plates, and pour salmon gravy over top.

Alternate: Serve salmon gravy over crushed crackers.

Serves approximately 6 people.
