Madeira Cream Gravy Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add shallots, and cook until translucent. Add wine, and cook until liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Add glace de viande and stock. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, dissolve cornstarch in heavy cream. Whisk into sauce, and cook, stirring, until sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Remove from heat, and pass through a sieve. Keep warm in a double boiler, or a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water.

Steps:

• Pour the turkey drippings from the pan through a strainer into a fat separator. Pour turkey juices (minus fat) into a large heatproof measuring cup, and add enough turkey or chicken stock to make 2 1/2 cups. Place pan over high heat, and deglaze it with Madeira. Strain pan mixture into measuring cup.
• Melt butter in a saucepan. Add shallots, and cook over medium heat until soft and translucent, 3 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon. Add flour, and cook until a dark golden brown, 2 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon.
• Remove saucepan from heat, and whisk in stock-Madeira mixture and heavy cream. Return to heat, and gradually bring sauce to a boil, whisking steadily. Briskly simmer thickened sauce until slightly reduced, whisking often, about 3 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Combine water, 2 tbsp butter and lemon juice in a saucepan, bring to a boil and reduce heat to low and add mushrooms, cover and cook 5 minutes Pour off the fat from the roasting pan.
• Add 1/4 cup butter to the pan and place over medium high heat, stir butter to melt and add the onions, saute until transparent Drain mushroom liquid and add to the pan.
• Add beef broth, tomato paste and madeira wine, blend well.
• Stir in the mushrooms and flour.
• Stir until the gravy is slightly thickened.
• Season to taste Serve.

Steps:

• Make giblet stock while turkey is roasting.
• Transfer roasted turkey to a large platter. Pour juices from the pan into a fat separator. Set aside to separate, about 10 minutes.
• Strain stock, discarding solids, and return to saucepan; warm over low heat. Place roasting pan on top of stove over medium-high heat. Pour Madeira into measuring cup, then into pan, and let it bubble; scrape bottom and sides of pan with a wooden spoon to dislodge cooked-on bits.
• Make a slurry: Place flour in a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid. Ladle 1 cup stock into jar, and close lid. Shake until combined. Slowly pour into roasting pan; stir to incorporate. Cook over medium heat, stirring until flour is cooked, 2 to 3 minutes. Slowly stir in remaining stock.
• Raise heat to medium high. Add the dark drippings that have settled to the bottom of the fat separator to roasting pan. Discard fat. Stir in rosemary. Season with salt and pepper. Cook 10 to 15 minutes to reduce and thicken. (For thicker gravy, add 1 more tablespoon flour and 1/2 cup less stock.)
• Strain liquid from pan through a very fine sieve. Adjust seasoning. Keep warm in heat-proof bowl over a pan of simmering water until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Gradually mix the madeira into the flour until smooth. Heat the stock in a pan, then pour in the flour mixture and mustard, stirring until thickened. Chill until ready to serve, covering the surface with cling film to stop a skin forming. On the day, reheat in a pan with the turkey juices until bubbling.

Steps:

• Heat skillet.
• Add oil.
• Add flour when oil is hot.
• Salt and pepper.
• Cook over medium high heat to cook flour almost brown.
• Add milk and stir till the desired thickness.

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a wide saucepan over a medium heat. Sizzle the onion, carrots, bay leaves and thyme in the pan for 15 mins until the veg starts to brown. Scatter over the sugar and continue to cook for a further few minutes until sticky and caramelised. Stir in the flour until sandy. Cook for 1 min, then add the Marmite, tomato purée, vinegar and soy sauce to make a sticky paste. Pour over the madeira and bubble for 1 min.
• Add the stock, then crush the veg with a potato masher. Bubble everything together for 10 mins until you have a thickened sauce that just coats the back of a spoon. Sieve and use straightaway as a veggie gravy or as the base to a turkey gravy. Can be cooled, then frozen for up to three months.
