Turkey Crown On The Bone

1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F/Gas Mark 6).
2. Prepare the Roasting Dish: Place the turkey crown in a large roasting dish. Add butter under the skin to keep it juicy and generously season the entire bird.
3. Start Roasting: Roast the turkey crown at 200°C for 30 minutes. Then, reduce the oven temperature to 160°C and continue cooking for 30 minutes per kilo.
4. Check for Doneness: Insert a skewer into the thickest part of the crown. The juices should run clear, not pink, if the turkey is fully cooked.
5. Rest the Turkey: Allow the crown to rest for 30-40 minutes at room temperature to keep the juices in the meat. Collect any juices for your gravy.
6. Make Gravy: Use the roasting tin to create a rich gravy by adding turkey stock and a splash of wine. Stir well to release the flavours left behind from the roasting.

Cooking Note: For the most accurate results, use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F).
