Turkey gravy

Turkey gravy can make or break a Christmas dinner. Our recipe is simple yet bursting with flavour.

Ready in an hour or less, our turkey gravy recipe is thick, flavourful and a must-have for a festive feast. Make plenty of gravy so you and your family can pour it on, thick and fast.

What you'll need...

  • Turkey giblets
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 sprig of thyme
  • 4 black peppercorns
  • 1 large white onion
  • 2 sticks of celery
  • 100ml white wine, optional
  • 50g plain flour
  • 50g unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp red currant jelly, optional

Method

  1. Place the giblets in a saucepan and cover with 2 pints of water. Add the thyme, bay leaf, peppercorns, celery and chopped onion. Bring to the boil and skim off any scum that forms. Reduce the heat and simmer for 45 mins. Strain the stock and set aside. 

  2. Once the turkey is cooked, strain off the fat from the roasting tin leaving only the turkey fat. Add flour and butter, mixing with the juices over a gentle heat until it has a smooth texture. If using wine, stirring constantly to loosen the delicious, caramelised bits stuck to the bottom. If you don’t want to add wine, then a splash of water will do the same. 

  3. Pour in the turkey stock and scrape the base of the pan with a spatula to ensure everything is mixing well. Over a medium heat, add the redcurrant jelly and stir until melted. 

  4. Add more of this four and butter mix depending on how thick you like your gravy.
