- Add a tub (or 2 depending on the size) of our fresh turkey stock to your baking tray as this will keep the turkey roll moist and succulent and assist with basting the turkey fillet roll during cooking.
- Place in your oven and loosely cover it with foil.
- A turkey fillet roll needs to cook for an 1hr for the first kilo then 40mins per kilo thereafter. For example a 2kg turkey roll will take approximately 1hr and 40mins to cook.
- Remove the foil completely from your turkey roll for the final 30 mins to brown it.
- If unsure, your turkey roll is cooked when juices run clear after being pierced in the thickest part of the roll with a skewer.
- Allow your turkey roll to rest in a warm place for approximately 15minutes before carving. This will ensure that the juices have settled and will make the meat very succulent.
- While your turkey roll is resting, strain the juices from the baking tray to remove any garlic and thyme from the marinade and place 1 cup of those baking juices in a saucepan along with our homemade turkey gravy. Bring to the boil then simmer for 5 minutes. Serve it along with our homemade cranberry sauce.
