Ingredients
  

  • Turkey giblets optional
  • Mushrooms optional
  • 2 Tbsp butter optional
  • ¼ cup flour
  • 5 cups chicken stock
  • 1/4 cup dry sherry optional
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • If you are using the turkey giblets, boil them in water in the 2-quart pot until they are cooked through. Chop into small pieces.
  • If you are using mushrooms, fry them with the butter until cooked through.
  • Remove the turkey from the roasting pan.  (This is a much easier job if you have a roasting pan with a rack that has attached handles...you can easily lift the turkey right out and set it on a platter).
  • If there is fat floating on the top of the turkey juices, skim most of it off.
  • Gradually add the flour to the turkey juices, stirring with a wooden spoon while cooking over medium heat for about 2 minutes.  Make sure that the flour has completely dissolved into the turkey juices...this will prevent lumps in the gravy.
  • Gradually stir in the chicken stock until the gravy is the consistency that you want.
  • If using the sherry, stir it into the gravy.
  • You can add more chicken stock to make the gravy more liquid, or add a little more flour and cook for a while longer to make the gravy thicker.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • If you are using giblets and/or mushrooms, add them to the gravy and cook until heated through.
  • Serve and enjoy!
