Mashed Potatoes and Gravy Complete Information

KFC Mashed Potatoes and Gravy cost $2.99 and carry 130-590 cal, which is the same price as plain mash and only slightly more calories. It is the most ordered side on the Sides menu and the one most people picture when they picture a KFC tray. Smooth mash under the brown gravy, which is savoury rather than rich, thin enough to run rather than sit, and salty in a way that works against fried chicken.

The one thing to know is that this is not a vegetarian order. KFC's gravy is made with chicken, so anyone avoiding meat wants plain mash instead. Beyond that it is the cheapest way to make a chicken order feel like a meal, and at the same price as the plain version there is no reason to hesitate. A Biscuit on the side is the traditional way to finish the gravy left in the tub.

KFC Mashed Potatoes and Gravy Recipe

Two components, and the gravy is the one that decides the dish. A proper brown gravy starts with a roux cooked past blond, which is where the colour and the savoury depth come from. Skip that and you get thickened stock, which is not the same thing at all.

Ingredients

Mashed potatoes

Brown gravy

Method

0 of 6 steps

Tips

  • Take the roux to peanut butter colour. Pale roux gives pale gravy that tastes of flour.
  • Soy sauce is not a flavour here, it is colour. A teaspoon does what a bottle of gravy browning does.
  • Both parts should be loose. A thick gravy on a stiff mash sits in two separate layers, which is not how this side works.

Variations

  • Use the fond from a roast chicken pan instead of stock for a much deeper gravy.
  • Add a pinch of sage for something closer to a Sunday roast gravy.
  • Thin the gravy further and serve it as a dip for wedges.

Serve it with

  • A biscuit on the side to finish what is left in the tub.
  • Under fried chicken rather than beside it.
  • Four portions cost well under four at $2.99 each.

Mashed Potatoes and Gravy Questions

$2.99, the same as plain mashed potatoes. The gravy costs nothing extra when ordered this way.

No. The Signature Brown Gravy is made with chicken. Order plain mashed potatoes if you are avoiding meat.

130-590 cal depending on size. The gravy adds relatively little to the plain mash figure, mostly in sodium rather than calories.

A chicken base thickened into a brown gravy, savoury and salt-forward rather than meaty. Restaurants make it up through the day, which is why the consistency varies from one visit to the next.

Yes, as a separate Signature Brown Gravy order. Most restaurants will also add a little to a tray for nothing if you ask at the counter.
