Steps to make Turkey Gravy:

- Add the flour into the tray and stir in for a minute to combine, add the white wine and chicken stock and the herbs and garlic from the turkey cavity
- Simmer the tray over a medium low heat for at least 30 minutes and stir regularly to make sure it doesn't burn. Strain through a sieve or conical strainer into a sauce pan and smash the vegetables to extract as much juice as possible. Simmer for around 20 minutes or until the gravy is the consistency desired (up to you). Skim the scum that comes to the surface
