This is my family's favourite and I'm sharing the recipe here. The gravy recipe was taken from myresipi.com with slight adjustment due to available ingredients and my convenience ;)

Mashed Potato gravy - credit to myresipi.com
Ingredients:
- 650 ml water (I roughly put 2-3 mugs of water)
- 5 tbs of chicken stock (I used a cube of maggi brand stock)
- 1 onion chopped (I used half of big onion)
- 1 celery (I didn't use)
- 40 g butter (I didn't add any)
I don't like it too buttery since butter has been added in the mashed potato.
- 20 g flour (I used 1 tbs of flour)
- 1 tbs tomato sauce
- 1 tbs of oyster sauce
- few drops of soy sauce
- salt & pepper
Method:
1. Boil the water in the pot and add chicken stock, celery and onion. Simmer for ab 10 mins.
2. Then filter the sauce into a bowl (to discard the onion & celery).
3. *Pour back the sauce into the pot and put on a low heat.
4. Dissolve the flour in the water before adding into the pot and stir.
5. Add the oyster sauce, tomato sauce and few drops of soy sauce (for colouring).
6. *Add salt & pepper to taste.
*Notes:
1. taste first before adding the salt as the oyster sauce & the chicken stock is already salty.
2. If prefer to add butter, melt the butter in the pot before pouring the sauce into it. (in step3)
Serve the mashed potato with the gravy and it's yummy! I can say, more or less like the kfc version;)
