rubbing the thick part through the sieve and after removing any fat
serve in a sauce boat.

If any meat is left over it can be sliced and warmed over in the gravy,
but the gravy must be warmed first and the meat cook for a short time
only as it is already done enough and too much cooking will render it
tasteless.
