Turkey recipe in English. History of the origin of the holiday Christmas

Step 1: Prepare the marinade for the turkey.

You can make any English-style turkey marinade, but one of the most common and traditional marinades is the orange-apple marinade. It is often used to cook Christmas turkey. To begin with, rinse 3 oranges under running water, then dry them with paper kitchen towels, lay them one by one on a cutting table, cut off the places where the inflorescences and stalks were attached, now it will be easier for you to cut off the top layer of the skin.
For marinade, you do not need a small zest, therefore, with an ordinary kitchen knife, cut the skin from citrus fruits without touching the flesh.
Now prepare all the other ingredients that you will need to prepare the fragrant mass. Using a measuring cup, separate the desired amount brown sugar and coarse salt. Lay the bay leaf, black peppercorns, fresh rosemary leaves and peeled garlic on a cutting board.
Turn on the stove to a medium level and put a large 9-10 liter saucepan on it. Pour apple juice into it, you need about 750 milliliters in total, but even if you use 1 liter, you still can't go wrong. Bring the juice to a boil.
And immediately pour in the right amount of clean distilled water, which you previously boiled and cooled to room temperature.
Then add salt to the pot.
Pour in brown sugar.
Now a spicy bay leaf.
For pleasant aroma rosemary leaves.
For spiciness, black peppercorns.
And this bouquet of herbs and spices will be complemented by fragrant orange peel.
Bring the liquid with herbs and spices to a boil, stirring occasionally and removing foam from the surface with a slotted spoon. Then turn off the stove and cover the pan with a lid, do not digest the marinade, it should be infused with spices and other ingredients, absorbing all their smell. Let the marinade cool completely to room temperature. This will take approximately 2 hours, during which time prepare the turkey.

Step 2: Prepare the Turkey.


Before marinating, you must be sure that the turkey has warmed to room temperature. If you purchased a frozen bird, put it in a bowl and leave it in the refrigerator overnight, and in the morning take it out of the refrigerator and let it warm to room temperature. Lay the thawed turkey on a cutting board, remove the giblets from it and cut off the neck with a sharp knife.
Then clean it from small feathers that may have remained in the skin. After that, thoroughly rinse the bird under running cold running water from all sorts of contaminants inside and out. Now dry the turkey with paper kitchen towels, it is very important that its surface is dry both inside and out.

Step 3: Marinate the Turkey.


Take a large zippered plastic bag and place the dried turkey in it.
Holding the edges of the bag with your hand, pour all the marinade into it with a glass. Do not leave not a drop of fragrant mixture in the pan, put even orange peels in the bag.
Close the bag with a zipper, and put it together with the bird in a deep pan with the seam up, so that if the bag is opened, the marinade will not spill out. Put the pot in the fridge and marinate the bird from 16 to 24 hours. Yes, it will take quite a long time to marinate, but believe me, you have not eaten a more tender turkey.

Step 4: prepare the filling.


Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Rinse green onion, peeled onion, apple and lemon under running water. Cut the lemon into 2 parts and squeeze the juice from them with your hand into a deep bowl. Shake green onions over the sink to remove excess liquid, place on a cutting board, finely chop and transfer to a bowl with lemon juice. Cut the core of the apple, remove the stalk, lay on a cutting board and cut into small cubes with an approximate diameter of up to 5 millimeters. Send the sliced ​​\u200b\u200bto the onion, add almonds with raisins there. You have a fruit mass. The onion remains, lay it on a cutting board, cut into a medium cube with a diameter of up to 7 millimeters and transfer the vegetable to a plate.
Place as much as you need on a cutting board. white bread and cut it into layers up to 1 centimeter thick. Then place the slices of bread on a non-stick baking sheet and place it in the preheated oven. Dry the bread for 5 - 8 minutes until light golden brown.
While the bread is drying, pass the turkey liver washed under running water through an electric meat grinder directly into a deep bowl.
When the bread is dry, remove the baking sheet from the oven with a kitchen towel, let the breadcrumbs cool and chop them into smaller pieces with a sharp knife.
Smoked bacon, lay on a cutting board and cut into cubes with an approximate diameter of up to 1 centimeter. Turn the stove on to medium and place a frying pan on it. Place the chopped bacon in a heated container and simmer it until cracklings. Then pour half of the pork fat into a deep bowl, you will need it later.
Put the pan back on the stove and throw in the remaining fat, chopped onion, fry it until golden brown along with the cracklings, stirring with a kitchen spatula for 3 - 4 minutes.
After that, add chopped turkey liver to the pan and simmer the ingredients together until the by-product acquires a gray tint. Then transfer the stewed ingredients into a bowl with fruit mass, add salt, ground black pepper, chopped dried bread to taste and mix the mass with a tablespoon until smooth. You should get a mashed filling of a figurative consistency.

Step 5: Stuff and brush the turkey with oil.


Remove the marinated turkey from the bag, you will no longer need the marinade, you can pour it out. Rinse the bird under running cold water to remove excess salt and again, very carefully dry it with paper kitchen towels to remove excess liquid.
Stuff the turkey with the stuffing. Lift the skin on the breast and make a small longitudinal cut so that you get a pocket. Lower the strip of skin between the turkey legs and put it on the shins, thus holding the turkey thighs together. Then brush the surface of the bird with the right amount of butter, making sure not to miss a single piece of turkey.

Step 6: prepare the vegetable pillow and roast the turkey.


Increase the oven temperature up to 220 degrees Celsius. While the oven heats up, rinse the peeled onions, carrots, celery stalks, and thyme sprigs under running water. Lay the ingredients one by one on a cutting board and chop into large pieces of arbitrary shape and diameter.
After that, transfer the chopped vegetables to a deep roaster or a deep cauldron.
Then put the stuffed turkey on top of them, pour in 2 cups of broth or clean distilled water and cover the container with a lid. Place the chicken casserole in the preheated oven and roast the turkey for 2 hours.
In 2 hours, using a tablespoon, mix the remaining fat from the bacon and all the spices for watering indicated in the ingredients in a deep bowl. Open the stove with a kitchen towel and remove the lid from the roaster. From all sides, pour the resulting mixture over the turkey, spreading it on the surface of the bird in an even layer with a baking brush.
Put the turkey back in the oven, but this time leave the lid off the roaster. Roast the bird again 1 hour. Roasting time depends on the weight of the turkey, for each 500 grams 30 minutes. After the required time has elapsed, turn off the stove and let the bird cool a little right in the oven, it’s enough 10 - 15 minutes. Then remove the baking sheet from the oven with a kitchen towel, carefully transfer the turkey to a large flat dish using a kitchen spatula, and serve with a double-pronged fork and a sharp kitchen knife. Optionally, you can put vegetables that were baked with it around the turkey.

Step 7: Serve the turkey in English.


The turkey in English is served hot, laid on a large flat dish or in a roaster in which it was baked. Immediately before serving, the bird is poured with juice, which she let out during baking.
By tradition, this bird is not cut into more than 10 parts: 2 legs, 2 thighs, 2 forearms and 2 breasts, cut into 2 halves. As a side dish, baked vegetables that were cooked with turkey, fresh vegetable salad, boiled rice, boiled potatoes or mashed potatoes are suitable for this dish. An ideal aperitif for turkey is sweet red wine, ideal non-alcoholic drinks are juice from red or green grapes, or pomegranate juice. Enjoy! Bon Appetit!

- - The spices indicated in this recipe are not critical, you can process the goose with any other spices you like that are suitable for poultry dishes.

- - You can add a tablespoon of honey to the topping for watering, this ingredient will give the bird's crust a richer dark shade.

- - For baking, you can use a regular non-stick baking sheet. Line it with aluminum foil, then lay the vegetable pad, turkey and cover the still raw dish with a sheet of aluminum foil so that there are no gaps. After 2 hours, remove the foil and continue cooking the poultry as directed in the recipe.
