Cooking Instructions

- 3
Rub the top of the turkey skin and the carcass with a mixture of salt and dried rosemary
- 4
Add some honey in a bowl and microwave for 10 seconds. Mix honey with orange juice.
- 5
Place the turkey on a rack on top of a baking tray, and add some water in the tray to stop the dripping fat from burning

Cover with foil and cook for 1hour and 30minutes.

After 1.5hr place the vegetables you want in the tray. We will cook the turkey now for one more hour over 3 phases of 20 minutes. 1. Brush the turkey, cover and cook for 20 minutes. 2. Do the same for another 20 minutes, brush, cover and cook. 3. At the last 20 minutes brush the turkey with the mixture, pour the rest of the mixture in the tray to mix with the veggies, and place in the oven WITHOUT covering it with foil to give it some nice colour.

The turkey is now done. And the vegetables should be well roasted and delicious! Serve with homemade gravy and merry Christmas!

Juicy Thanksgiving Turkey Juicy Thanksgiving Turkey
This turkey recipe uses orange wedges and aromatics to add flavor, while a champagne broth works its magic to keep the turkey moist and tender. My grandmother and mother passed this recipe on to me. It changes a little every Thanksgiving, because I've never written the recipe down before. But the roast turkey is always incredibly juicy and succulent!

Honey glazed Turkey Omlet Honey glazed Turkey Omlet
When cooking eggs, its important to have your pan fry in a perfect temperature. I can be impatient so my trick is to start with a medium heat. Before I cook, I drop a pinch of water to check if its ready. Then I lower down the temperature. This trick can help you avoid sticky pan fry as well!Happy cooking la!!! Xox

Herbed Butter Injected Roast Turkey Herbed Butter Injected Roast Turkey
You will need a meat injection syringe for this recipe, they come cheap at most stores that carry kitchen gadgets.No, it's not a holiday or special occasion. I just felt like cooking the turkey I had taking up space in my freezer (mostly to free up that space lol), and I have a love for injecting my poultry with flavor since the first time I ever tried it.
