Ingredients A whole turkey A lemon An onion Rosemary and thyme Vegetable stock (around one pint) Pepper A little melted butter or spread Instructions Step 1 Pat your turkey dry with a paper towel. Season the outside of the bird with a little pepper and very lightly brush with melted butter or spread. Halve the lemon and the onion, roughly chop your herbs—and place everything into the cavity evenly. Step 2 Pour your vegetable stock into the bottom of a roasting pan and sit your turkey in the liquid, breast side up. Preheat your oven to around 400 degrees, add a tin foil tent over the top of your turkey, and put it in to cook. Step 3 Cook slowly at a rate of 20 minutes per kilogram of weight. Check regularly and add a tiny bit of butter to your bird if necessary. Notch up the heat by around 20 degrees for the last 20 minutes to make the skin nice and crispy! Step 4 Remove from the oven, place on a presentable tray, and enjoy with a stack of healthy festive trimmings.
