Ingredients:
* 2 onions finely chopped
* 2 tsp cornflower
* 1 cup turkey juices from under cooked turkey
* Turkey/chicken gravy granules (Yes, really!)
Method:
1. Pour turkey fat into a saucepan, add onions and gently sauté for 8 minutes.
2. Add cornflower and stir in thoroughly.
3. Make up the gravy granuules stock and slowly pour 1½ parts gravy stock into saucepan, stirring continuously.
4. Let it cook for 5 minutes then whisk (use an electric one if you have it) until smooth and glossy.
5. Transfer to hot jug for serving.
