Ingredients

  • ¼ cup butter
  • 6 ¾ tbsp or ½ cup plain flour
  • 3 ¼ cups turkey or chicken stock
  • Dash Worcestershire sauce
  • Gravy browning sauce (optional)

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in a large saucepan. Add the flour and stir over the heat for a few seconds. Whisk in the hot giblet stock. Bring it up the boil, whisking until smooth and thickened. The consistency will be thick. Leave to cool and chill in the fridge, ready for Christmas day.
  2. Pour off the turkey juices into a jug. The fat and juices will separate. Skim and discard the turkey fat (which will be floating at the top). Measure 1 ¼ cups of turkey juices.
  3. Put the gravy into a saucepan, then add the turkey juices and bring up to the boil. Add Worcestershire sauce to taste and a little gravy browning, if you like a darker gravy color.
  4. Serve with the turkey.
