- 2 onions, leave the skin on and chopped
- 2 carrots, washed and chopped
- giblets from the turkey
- 1 tsp rosemary
- 2 tsp jam
- 3 tsp plain flour
- about 250 ml stock or water

Method
10 steps- Roast the turkey with onions, carrots, and giblets in a high-sided roasting tray.
- Separate the fat from the juices using a jam jar or similar container.
- Heat the fat on high and bring to the boil to reduce the juices.
- Scrape the browned bits from the tray with a little wine or alcohol, then cook off the alcohol.
- Add two teaspoons of jam to the juices for sweetness and tang.
- Add three teaspoons of plain flour to the tray and stir to absorb the flavors, thickening the gravy.
- Pour in stock or water to nearly fill the tray, then simmer for about 20-25 minutes until dark and thickened.
- Pass the gravy through a colander to remove larger bits and sediment.
- Skim off foam or scum from the surface of the resting juices before adding to the gravy.
- Bring the gravy to a simmer, then serve hot.
