Rupy's Lentil and Mushroom Gravy

This gravy is thickened with lentils and mushrooms, rather than flour or cornflour as is found in many recipes. They not only add body, they bring a lot of flavour. Rupy made this in the studio one day using what he had available to him. Strawberry jam may sound unorthodox but trust us - it adds the perfect amount of sweetness. If you don’t have any, maple syrup or honey will work just fine.
