How often do you open a jar to get your gravy? It’s something we all do, but making homemade gravy is so much easier than you realize. Tastes better too!
Ingredients
2cupsdrippings
3Tablespoonsall-purpose flour
1-2cupsbeef or chicken broth
1/2onionminced (optional)
2clovesgarlicminced (optional)
1Tablespoonolive oiloptional
Salt and pepperto taste
Instructions
If using onion and garlic, sautee with 1 Tablespoon olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. (This is a good idea if you didn't use a lot of seasoning on your turkey to contribute to a more flavorful dripping.)
Scrape the drippings from your roasting pan and push through a fine mesh sieve to remove any leftover pieces of turkey. Add to the saucepan.
Heat until the drippings are hot, about 2 minutes, and then whisk in the flour.
Allow to cook, whisking occasionally, for 2 minutes.
Whisk in your broth until you achieve your desired consistency.
