The standard homemade gravy containing flour and white wine will have about 7.8g for each half-cup serving without the mashed potatoes. Commercial gravy sold in fast food and restaurants might have an even higher amount of carbs.

Gravy is commonly described as a type of sauce. Meat juices are combined with broth or milk and thickened with starch to make a gravy thicker. Other types of sauce do not have meat-based ingredients. There are different styles in cooking grave and would require personal preference of ingredients.
