1 ( 12- to14- lb) turkey, preferably fresh
1 lb sliced smoked bacon
1 3/4 pints turkey stock (made from giblets) or chicken stock
salt and pepper to taste
- Rinse the turkey inside and out and place on a rack in a heavy roasting pan. Let the bird sit for several hours, covered with a kitchen towel, to come to room temperature.
- Preheat the oven to 230 deg C. Arrange the bacon slices over the turkey breast. Put the bird in the oven and roast for one and a half hour. Turn the heat down to 190 deg C and remove the bacon to use for another purpose. Don't baste the turkey; just let it cook until done.( Use an instant- read thermometer to check : the inner fold of the thigh should be 165 deg).
- If it begins to look perfectly too brown too soon, cover the breast loosely with foil.
- When the turkey's done, remove it to a serving platter to rest for 10 minutes, tented with foil.
- To make gravy , pour off all except 2 fl.oz of the fat. Add 1 3/4 pints of turkey or chicken stock to the pan and scrape up all the little bits.
- Put the roasting pan over heat and boil to reduce the juice to half, stirring frequently. Add salt and pepper to taste.
