Turkey Gravy - for ROASTED Turkey

Recipe video above. This is a recipe for how to make gravy for turkey that's been roasted so you have pan drippings to use as the base for gravy (ie the juices and oil in the base of the pan when the turkey is finished cooking). See separate recipe card below for SLOW COOKER turkey (different method).If you don't have either, use my from-scratch gravy recipe instead.This recipe assumes a WHOLE Roasted Turkey to 6 kg / 8 - 12lb. If yours is larger, scale recipe up (see Note 1 for quantity) If you roasted breast, you won't have much pan drippings (because it's pretty lean) so use the Slow Cooker turkey gravy recipe below. This gravy is outrageously delicious so make plenty! Freezes for 3 months.

6 tbsp drippings in turkey roasting pan ((Note 2))

6 tbsp flour (, plain / all purpose)

4 cups chicken broth / stock (, low sodium)

Salt and pepper

Instructions

Step 1
Place the roasting pan on the stove over medium heat. Single burner is fine, but ideal if it fits across two. Leave garlic, onion etc and other flavourings things in the pan (Note 1)
Step 2
When it starts sizzling/bubbling, add flour. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Step 3
Gradually pour the liquid in, mixing constantly. Once it's all in, it should be lump free. If not, use a whisk - whisk around the onion etc.
