I found this recipe quite a few years ago in a Southern Living Cookbook. It's a good way to use up some of the leftover turkey from the holidays.
Ingredients:
1 turkey carcass
4 quarts water
1 cup butter
1 cup flour
3 onions, chopped
2 large carrots, diced
2 celery ribs, diced
1 cup long grain rice, raw
2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
2 cups half-and-half
Directions:
1. Place turkey carcass and water in Dutch oven; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, simmer 1 hour.
2. Remove carcass and pick off meat. Broth should measure 3 quarts.
3. Heat butter in Dutch oven; add flour and cook over medium heat stirring constantly 5 minutes.
4. Stir onion, carrot and celery into roux; cook over medium heat 10 minutes, stirring often.
5. Add broth, turkey, rice, salt and pepper; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat. Simmer 20 minutes.
6. Add half and half. Heat through.
