Turkey Gravy
- 3 tablespoons reserved juices, from the turkey
- 3 tablespoons plain flour
- 2 12 cups chicken stock
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch fresh ground black pepper
- red wine
- Get the stock bubbling in a saucepan on a medium-heat hob.
- Skim excess fat from the turkey roasting tin, leaving about 3 tablespoons of liquid fat with the dark turkey juices in the tin.
- Place the roasting tin on the hob over a low heat and sprinkle with flour.
- Whisk the flour into the juices to form a smooth paste.
- Begin to add the hot stock a little at a time, whisking briskly to blend.
- As the stock is added and it hits simmering point, the gravy will thicken.
- If it is too thin, let it cook to reduce, if it's too thick, add some more liquid.
- Add a splash of wine and continue to reduce.
- The gravy should cook for 15-20 minutes.
- Season with freshly milled pepper and some salt, then pour into a warmed gravy jug to serve with your roast turkey.
