Ingredients:

• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 stalks celery, chopped
• 2 bay leaves
• 3 whole all spice

• 1/4 cup dry red wine

Preparation:

TURKEY ROLL
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Saute garlic in olive oil.
3. Place turkey roll in a small Pyrex dish with a tight lid. Smear oil and garlic over turkey roll. Add celery, onion, bay leaves, and all spice. Pour ginger ale over the turkey roll.
4. Cover tightly. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 2-3 hours or until turkey roll is cooked through.
5. Cool turkey to room temperature. Then refrigerate several hours or overnight.
6. Remove turkey from vegetables and drippings. Slice turkey and place in covered oven-proof serving dish. Strain drippings of vegetables into a sauce pan to be made into gravy.
GRAVY
1. Heat strained drippings in a sauce pan over low heat.
2. Saute 6-8 mushrooms. Add mushrooms to drippings in the sauce pan.
3. Make a loose paste with a bit of drippings and flour. Add to gravy. Adjust amount of flour used according to the amount of drippings and desired gravy thickness.
4. Add soup powder, sugar, and wine. If using sweet red wine instead of dry, there is no need to add sugar.
5. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until sauce is thickened and flavors are combined.
6. Pour gravy over sliced turkey roll. Heat turkey in gravy and serve warm.

TIPS:

1. To avoid bumpy gravy, make a paste with flour and a little liquid before adding the flour to the gravy.
2. A little sugar improves the taste of any gravy.
3. Ginger ale and coke are great meat tenderizers.
