Christmas Turkey, Goose or Guinea Fowl with Fresh Black Truffles

Serves 4


Ingredients:

      • 1 large turkey, goose or guinea fowl
      • 2 oz Fresh Black Italian Truffles

    Method

    1. Have the fresh Truffle using a Truffle shaver, and using a sharp knife, make small incisions under the skin of the bird.
    2. Loosen the skin and smear with a good quality extra virgin olive oil.
    3. Take 1.5 oz of the Black Truffle shavings, and carefully insert into the various incisions.
    4. Roast the bird in the oven in the usual way, using a cooking time as appropriate for the size.
    5. Serve with all your favourite traditional Christmas trimmings.
    6. To complete the Truffle effect, shave the remaining 0.5 oz of fresh Truffles onto Roast or Boiled Potatoes as they are served at the dining table.
