Ingredients
Directions
-
Crumble the bread in the food processor. Clean the lemon, grate the yellow skin of the lemon and squeeze out the fruit.
-
Beat the eggs and cut the parsley fine.
-
Mix in a bowl the ricotta with the breadcrumbs, egg, lemon zest, ⅔ of the lemon juice, the parsley and (freshly ground) salt and pepper.
-
Carefully loosen the skin of the turkey around, even at the legs. Do this by gently sliding your hand between the skin and the meat.
-
Make sure the sheet does not tear. Cover the meat with slices of pancetta and pull the skin tight again.
-
Fill the belly cavity of the turkey with the ricotta mixture and press it well. Stick the skin around the abdominal cavity with cocktail sticks.
-
Sprinkle the turkey with the rest of the lemon juice and then rub with the butter. Sprinkle with (freshly ground) salt and pepper.
-
Place 2 long sheets of aluminum foil crosswise in the roasting pan and fold them loosely around the turkey. Save the turkey to use in the refrigerator.
-
Let the turkey return to room temperature in at least 2 hours.
-
Preheat the oven to 175 ºC.
-
Slide the roasting pan into the oven and let the turkey cook for approx. 2 hours and 15 minutes. Insert the core or meat thermometer into the turkey's breast.
-
If it indicates 70 ºC, the turkey is cooked. Remove the foil and let the turkey turn brown at 200 ºC for another 20-30 min.
-
Place the turkey on a flat dish or shelf and let it rest for 10 minutes under the foil.
-
Pour the frying liquid into a pan and add the fond. Let this reduce to 10 minutes on a high heat until a nice gravy.
-
Cut the turkey at the table. Spoon the filling with the turkey. Give the gravy separately.
