Preparation

Step 1

Pour all of the drippings (turkey juices plus fat) from the bottom of the pan into a gravy separator or measuring cup. Spoon off the fat and discard it, reserving 1 cup turkey broth. Set aside.

Cook rutabagas in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain rutabagas and transfer to a food processor or blender; process until chopped but still chunky. Set aside.

Add olive oil and flour to a medium-sized saucepan; heat over medium-high heat, whisking constantly, for 2 minutes. Stir in the rutabaga puree.

Add turkey broth to the rutabaga mixture. Stir in the marmalade, pomegranate juice and wine. Simmer the sauce for 25 minutes. Season with salt and white pepper to taste. Use a handheld stick blender to process into a smooth gravy. Serve warm.
