Method

  1. Mix 3 tbsp red wine with the cornflour until smooth, then mix in all the wine. Heat stock in a pan, then pour in the red wine mixture and redcurrant jelly, stirring until thickened. Cover the surface with cling film to stop a skin forming. Chill for up to 2 days. To serve, reheat in a pan until bubbling, then stir in the turkey juices and transfer to a warm gravy boat.

Making ahead

This gravy can be made a few days ahead, so all you need to do to serve is heat it up in a pan, then add the turkey juices from the roasting tray for that extra depth of flavour.

    This was easy, but mine tasted just of red wine. I ended up throwing it away. Might have just been me but I wouldn't recommend.
