Product information

Preparation and Safety

Cooking instructions

Oven cook from chilled only.
190°C / Fan 160°C / Gas 5. 20 minutes per kg + 60 minutes.
If freezing at home, defrost thoroughly in a refrigerator before cooking.

Before Cooking: Leave the turkey out of the fridge to temper for one hour before cooking. Refer to the weight label on the front of the bag for the specific roasting time. Preheat oven. Remove all packaging. Remove the neck and giblet pack from the main body cavity. Place the turkey in a deep sided ovenproof roasting tin. Measure out 250ml of chicken or turkey stock (boiled water can be used instead) and pour into the roasting tin around the turkey. Rub oil or melted butter all over the skin and season with salt and pepper (optional). Cover the turkey with foil and place in the centre of the preheated oven.

During Cooking: Spoon the juices in the bottom of the roasting tin over the bird to baste every 30 minutes, rotate the tray and return to the oven. Remove the foil for the final 45 minutes before the end of cooking, baste and return to the oven to allow the skin to become golden brown.

After cooking: Once cooked, remove the turkey from the oven. Check product is piping hot and no pink colours remains. Cover with foil and leave to rest for 30 minutes before carving. All cooking appliances vary. This is a guide only.
To carve, remove the whole breast in one piece and slice.

Warnings

  • Don’t wash raw turkey.
    Keep raw poultry separate from cooked foods.
    Use separate kitchen utensils and surfaces for raw poultry and cooked foods or wash them thoroughly in between use.
    Wash hands after handling raw poultry.
    Do not stuff the bird – the stuffing must be cooked separately.
    Always ensure product is piping hot throughout and the juices run clear when a skewer is inserted into the deepest part of the thigh.
    Plastic bags can be dangerous. To avoid danger of suffocation, please keep this bag away from babies and small children.

Storage

For use by date: see front of pack.
Keep refrigerated at <5°C. Do not exceed the use by date.
Store uncooked meat covered and lower in the refrigerator than cooked meat.
For best quality, freeze as soon as possible after purchase and always within the use by date. Once frozen consume within 1 month.

Defrost Information
Leave the turkey in the bag. Defrost thoroughly for a minimum of 60 hours in a refrigerator and once defrosted cook within 24 hours. Do not re-freeze once defrosted.
Ensure the bird is completely defrosted by checking there are no ice crystals in the body cavity and the legs are flexible.
