Method: How to make Simple turkey gravy

1

Lift the cooked turkey on to a serving platter, cover and leave to rest in a warm place for the juices to settle and to ease carving.

2

Skim all the fat from the cooking juices and then stir the flour into the pan's residue. Cook for a minute or so, stirring over a low heat until golden.

3

Gradually pour in the wine and then stock, stirring all the time until smooth after each addition. Bring to the boil, and let bubble for 2-3 minutes until thickened. Season to taste.

4

Carve the turkey into slices and arrange on serving plates with some of the gravy.
