It's hard to imagine turkey dishes without the addition of a delicious and juicy seasoning. Sauces and gravies are an irreplaceable part of any poultry treat. This thick turkey sauce is not only easy to prepare, but also surprisingly delicate in texture. It will not only add the missing juiciness to the lean fillet, but also accentuate its natural taste.

There are many options for preparing liquid seasoning for poultry - they differ not only in thickness, but also in taste. Simple recipes for turkey gravy can be considered universal, as they will suit almost any side dish and will appeal to even the most fastidious gourmets. Knowing the two basic options for sauces, you can prepare a seasoning for every taste.

Creamy sauce with meat and cheese

Delicate creamy sauce turns out to be very tasty and incredibly aromatic. If desired, you can add a little fresh herbs or mushrooms to it - this will make the taste more intense.

Time to prepare and cook : 40 minutes
Number of ready meals : 6
Ingredients :

• Turkey pulp - 500 g
• Hard cheese - 100 g
• Cream or sour cream - 250 ml
• Flour - 2 tbsp. l.
• Vegetable oil - 50 ml
• Salt - 1-2 pinches
• Condiments and spices - optional

Preparation :

1. Rinse the fillets with cold water and drain off excess water. If necessary, remove the skin and cut off the films and veins.
2. Cut the meat into thin strips, add some salt and any spices. Mix the spice and turkey well and let sit for 5-10 minutes to soak the fillet.
3. Place flour in a small bowl or deep bowl.
4. Pour vegetable oil (odorless) into a saucepan or deep frying pan and place on the stove.
5. Dip each piece of meat in flour and place in a preheated saucepan. Fry the fillet pieces on all sides until lightly browned. The meat should be grabbed, not stewed in its own juice, so cook only over high heat.
6. When the turkey is browned, add the cream and reduce heat. Cover the saucepan with a lid and simmer for 25-30 minutes until the meat is fully cooked. Cream can be replaced with sour cream - with it the sauce will be even thicker.
7. Grate any hard cheese on a coarse grater. When the sauce is ready, add the cheese to it. Stir and bring the mixture to a boil to melt the cheese.

Remove the prepared sauce from the stove and serve with the side dish. The most suitable side dish for gravy is boiled potatoes, but you can choose whatever you want: spaghetti, pasta, or rice.

• If recipes include flour to thicken the sauce, it can always be replaced with starch. You can take the same amount, but in this case the gravy will be a little thinner and have a consistency similar to sour cream.
• The amount of water can be varied to taste. The more liquid, the less thick the gravy will be.
• The water can be replaced with broth, which can be pre-cooked from turkey or chicken.
• If you don't have ripe tomatoes on hand, you can always use tomato paste or juice. The number of tomatoes should be selected individually, focusing on your own taste preferences.
• To reduce the calorie content of the dish, you can replace butter with any vegetable oil. Take less fatty sour cream or cream, and, if desired, replace them with milk or yogurt.
