Roast turkey
●
Roasting turkey perfectly involves cooking two different
types of meat - the delicate light breast meat, which
must not be allowed to dry out, and the darker leg meat,
which takes longer to cook.
●
The turkey must be roasted long enough for the legs to
cook, so frequent basting is necessary. The breast meat
can be covered once browned.
●
The turkey can be open roasted, breast side down, for
half of the cook time, and then turned over for the
remainder of the cooking time.
●
If the turkey is stuffed, add 5 minutes per 1lb to the
cooking time.
●
If roasting turkey covered with foil, add 5 minutes per
1lb to the cooking time.
●
To test if the turkey is cooked, push a fine skewer into
the thickest part of the thigh. If the juices run clear, the
turkey is cooked. If the juices are still pink, the turkey
will need longer cooking. Always make sure that the
turkey is cooked properly before serving.
Turkey should be roasted at 180 - 200˚C
Conventional/ 160 - 180˚C Fanned for 20 - 30 mins
per 450g/1lb, plus 20 minutes.
