tablespoons turkey drippings (fat and juices)  
tablespoons all-purpose flour  
cup liquid (turkey juices, broth or water)  
Browning sauce, if desired  
Salt and pepper to taste  
Place the turkey on a carving board or warm platter, and cover with  
aluminum foil while preparing gravy. Pan and drippings will be hot, so be  
careful when handling. Pour drippings from roasting pan into a bowl,  
leaving the brown particles in the pan. Return 2 tablespoons of the  
drippings to the roasting pan. Measuring accurately is important because  
too little fat makes the gravy lumpy and too much fat makes the gravy  
greasy.  
Stir the flour into the drippings in the pan, using a long-handled fork or  
spoon. Cooking with the roasting pan on top of the burner may be unwieldy,  
so keep a pot holder handy to steady the pan. Cook over low heat, stirring  
constantly, until the mixture is smooth and bubbly. As you stir, the brown  
particles will be loosened from the bottom of the pan; they add more  
flavor to the gravy. Remove the pan from the heat.  
Stir in the 1 cup liquid (turkey juices, broth or water). Heat to boiling  
over high heat, stirring constantly. Continue boiling 1 minute, stirring  
constantly. Stir in a few drops of browning sauce if you want the gravy to  
have a richer, deeper color. Taste the gravy, and add a desired amount of  
salt and pepper.
