Roast:
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 75g of unsalted butter in a saucepan until it becomes liquid. Then add 15g of good-quality fine sea salt and remove from the heat.
Brush the turkey with melted butter, then place the turkey onto a roasting tray and roast for 20 minutes. Then cover with foil, reduce the heat to 160°C fan assisted or 180°C without a fan (gas 4) & continue to roast for an additional 2 ½ hours removing the foil for the final 20 minutes.
The core temperature should be a minimum of 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.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve with cranberry & bread sauces, roast potatoes & a selection of seasonal vegetables.
