Preparation
Preheat oven to 180ºC/ 160ºC fan/ Gas mark 4
Place the turkey in a roasting tray and cover with the softened Lurpak®, salt and pepper. Stuff the cavity with the herbs and the lemon. Cover loosely with foil and place in the
oven for 2 ½ hours, basting with the juices from the roasting tin every 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, place all the glaze ingredients into a pan and cook on a low heat until the sugar has melted. Turn up the heat to a gentle simmer until the glaze has thickened and
become slightly syrupy. Remove from the heat and leave to cool slightly.
After 2 ½ hours remove the turkey from the oven, remove the foil and spoon generously with the glaze. Return the turkey to the oven and cook for a further 1 hour or until the cooking juices run clear.
Finally, remove the turkey from the oven and cover loosely with foil. Rest for 20-30 minutes before carving.
