  Chef’s Tip:

  Simple pan gravy to accompany the chicken roulade with, which is made by its own juices and chicken stock:
  Melt 2 tablespoons of Astra in a pan. Add 3 tablespoons of flour and quickly cook to make a roux. Dilute 1 Knorr Chicken Cube with 2-3 cups of boiling water and pour it into the flour mixture. Gradually add 1 ½ cups of the pan gravy and cook till sauce becomes thick. Season to taste and serve with the Chicken Roulade.
