Please note: Fresh turkey should be stored below 5ºC. Remember to check the use-by date on the label and plan how best to store your bird
- On the day of roasting, remove your turkey from packaging, pat dry and bring to room temperature.
- Preheat your oven to 210°C for fan assisted or 230°C for ovens without a fan (gas 8).
- Melt 50g of unsalted butter in a saucepan until it becomes liquid, then add 10 g of good quality fine sea salt and remove from the heat.
- Brush the turkey all over with the melted butter, then place the turkey onto a roasting tray & roast for 20 minutes, then reduce the heat to 160°C fan assisted or 180°C without a fan (gas 4) & continue to roast for an additional 1 hour 20 minutes, reaching a core temperature of minimum 65°C before resting.
- Remove from the oven, put onto a clean tray and keep warm by covering with a sheet of foil. Rest for up to 1 hour before carving.
