2 Hour Roast Turkey

This can be a simple weekend roasting project. No need stuffing, just a decent oven.


"A succulent gobbler in just two hours!"




Ingredients

1 turkey (go for smaller one- 3.5- 4kg should do it)
150g butter
Mixed herbs
Sage
Rosemary
Salt and pepper to taste

Gravy:
Garlic
Pepper
Oyster Sauce


Serves...
6 - 8
 

You don't need to be intimidated by turkey anymore!



Method

Pat turkey dry and put in roasting pan.

Put butter, herbs and seasoning into a heated pan. Let the butter get merry with the herbs- this will be your basting sauce.

Brush generously on bird, not forgetting the cavity. Cover the turkey with foil, leaving the edges open.

Insert in oven of 180C on turbo fan setting.

Baste the bird every 20-30 minutes. After 1 and half hours, take off foil, give it a final baste and let it brown and crisp for a further 15-12 minutes.

Let it rest for 10 minutes or so before carving.

Take drippings from pan and fry some chopped garlic and pepper, add oyster sauce and a little water (you can also use chicken stock.)

Make sure you scrape the bottom well. Once thickened, gravy's done.
