Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 45-50 min per kg (about 20-25 min/lb.)
Cost: Reasonable
Difficulty: Easy
Hints and tips
Allow about 45 to 50 minutes per kilogram (20-25 minutes per pound); a turkey is usually cooked at moderately low heat (160° C/325° F) and needs to be basted frequently.
Once the turkey begins to brown, cover it loosely with a piece of aluminium foil; remove the foil 20 minutes before the end of the cooking time.
Accompaniments
Serve with potatoes cut into spheres or footballs, sautéed in butter, Brussels sprouts, glazed carrots and boiled buttered peas.

注意要點(diǎn):
每千克火雞烘烤用時45-50分鐘(約合每磅20-25分鐘);烘烤時通常用溫火(160攝氏度/325華攝度),并需要給火雞表面不斷的涂油。
等到火雞表面開始變成棕色時,用錫紙將其松松地包裹起來。在結(jié)束烘烤前20分鐘將錫紙拿去。
輔料:
將土豆切成圓球型,在黃油中塊炒,然后與椰菜、去皮的胡蘿卜和煮熟的奶油豌豆一起裝盤作為配菜打底。
