STEP 1Put the onions in a large pan with the turkey neck (optional). Pour in stock and simmer for 1 hr. Strain to remove the vegetables and turkey, then return the liquid to the pan. For a textured gravy, remove the turkey and, using a stick blender, blitz the onion into the stock until smooth.STEP 2Blend the flour with the white wine or water, then blend this into the stock, stirring over the heat until thickened.
