This simple recipe uses white wine for a pale, light gravy, but it can also be made with red wine or Port for a richer flavour
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp flour
- 200ml white wine or red wine
- 600ml chicken stock
Method
-
Pour away any excess fat from the turkey roasting tin but keep the onion halves (if using our Roast turkey with citrus butter recipe). Set the tin over a medium heat, then sprinkle over the flour. Stir with a wooden spoon and cook for 2 mins, turning the onion over in the mixture to extract the flavour.
-
Slowly stir in the wine and stock, adding any juices from the resting turkey. Bring to the boil, scraping the bits from the bottom, then simmer over a low heat for 15 mins. Sieve and season before serving alongside your Christmas turkey.
