I never make a thickened gravy, which I know some people like. Instead, about 30 minutes before the end of cooking I add a glass of liquid to the roasting tin. While the joint is resting on its serving plate I bubble the juices in the roasting tin, reducing or adding a little water or stock as necessary. To make an instant sauce, stir in double cream and bubble until reduced.
Place the roasting tin on the stove and bubble up the juices, scraping the bottom. Add extra liquid or reduce and then season.
