- Cover the vegetables with warm kettle water about an inch high in roasting tray.
- Place the rack over the top of the roasting tin and place the Turkey crown on to the rack.
- Salt and pepper to taste (season well)
- With tin foil create a “tent” over the whole roasting tin making sure to scrunch the edges to keep the moisture in.
- For the last 20 minutes of the cooking take off the tin foil to allow the Turkey Crown to brown.
- Once cooked place the Turkey Crown onto a suitable board and let it rest.
- Carefully pour the contents of the roasting tin through a sieve into a large saucepan, check for seasoning and thicken with cornflour to desired consistency.
