“”A Tried & Tested Proper Turkey Recipe””

Forget about all those fairy recipes with lame flavour, Xmas is all about flavours that stand out, not a boring dried out turkey tasting like moist cardboard!

This is my version..

Ingredients:
1 decent sized whole turkey / 2 tablespoons Broes smoked garlic & rosemary salt

For the brine:
1 onion, 1 orange, 1 lemon, 3 tablespoons coriander seeds, 3 tablespoons fennel seeds, 4 tablespoons sea salt, 4 tablespoons peppercorns, 5 pints water, handful of rosemary, 10 cloves, 6 star anise. Boil all for 10 minutes, let cool down then pour over turkey for 2 days. Take the turkey out of the brine, add the Broes Seasonings smoked garlic salt and roast your turkey your normal way.

Tip: Cover turkey with foil for half of the cooking time to prevent a charred breast, as nobody likes a burnt breast. Apart from those chicks on "love island" with proper fake tans in winter. And no - I don't watch love island lol!
