Roasting Guide

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.

Turkey should be roasted at 180 - 190˚C Conventional/ 160˚C Fanned for 20 mins per 1lb, plus 20 minutes.

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 Roasting times.

Most Turkeys are measured by the kilogram. Timing should be calculated in either of these ways:

40 minutes per 1kg plus 10 minutes per 1/4 kg. or

20 minutes per 1lb, plus 20 minutes.

The maximum size Turkey for this appliance is: 20lbs approximately 9kgs.

Please do not attempt to roast a Turkey larger than this, as the results cannot be guaranteed.
