Made in advance Gravy
We generally just use the juices from the tray. We make a roux with 1 tbs of oil from the tray heated, with 1 tbs of plain flour mixed to make a smooth paste and slowly add the juices from the tray & a little stock. However, our friend Lucy swears by Jamie Oliver's gravy.
If you've ordered a crown or breast roll and want some ideas as to what to do with the wings and extra meat this may be good for you.
