Easy Roast Turkey

To make my easy roast turkey we're going to start by prepping an extra large

roasting tin with extra wide foil and you want to do a really long strip to

leave a lot of excess foil on either side as you can see here and then just

put your turkey in the center. Then you need to check in the cavity for any

innards and just remove those. Then take your olive oil and coat the turkey all

over you can do it with your hands or a silicone brush. Then take one side of the

foil and fold it over as far as it will go and tuck in top and bottom. Then take

the second piece fold that over tucking that in as well. It doesn't need to be

tightly packing the turkey just as covered as it can be. Then transfer it to

the oven and roast for 30 minutes less than your calculated time because you

want to take it out and uncover it and put it back in so the skin can brown

Then take the turkey out check it's cooked all the way through I'll tell you

how to do that in my recipe post and then leave it to rest for a minimum of

20 minutes. Then with those lovely turkey juices we're going to make gravy so you

might need someone to help you if you've got a very big turkey. You're going to tip the pan and let all the juices run into a sieve over a medium saucepan. Add a

in your gravy powder or granules and over a low heat just stir until dissolved

Then you want to add in your boiling water and I'll tell you how to adjust

for however many people you want in my recipe post as well. Then give it a good

whisk and leave to bubble and thicken for about five minutes
