Ingredients

1/4 cup (50 mL) turkey drippings (fat and juices from roasted turkey)
1/4 cup (50 mL) all-purpose flour
2 cups (500 mL) liquid (juices from roasted turkey, broth, water)
1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt
1/2 tsp (2 mL) pepper

Steps

1

Pour drippings from roasting pan into bowl, leaving brown particles in pan. Return 1/4 cup (50 mL) drippings to roasting pan. (Measure accurately because too little fat makes gravy lumpy.) Stir in flour. (Measure accurately so gravy is not greasy.)
2

Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is smooth and bubbly; remove from heat. Stir in liquid. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute. Stir in salt and pepper.
