Turkey with maple syrup

    1. Preheat the oven to 150 ºC.
    2. Pat the turkey dry with a kitchen towel. Make sure the butter is semi-soft and mix it with salt and freshly ground pepper. Spread the butter both on the outside and under the skin of the turkey.
    3. Then brush the maple syrup over the turkey and place the turkey in the oven for 70 to 100 minutes.
    4. When the turkey reaches 71 ºC internally, it's done and ready to eat!
    5. Garnish with rosemary and cranberries. Enjoy!

This turkey with maple syrup is a festive dish that's perfect for a special occasion. The combination of butter and maple syrup gives the turkey a lovely golden crust and a subtly sweet flavor. Garnish generously with rosemary and cranberries for a beautiful presentation at the table.

Use a meat thermometer to check that the turkey has reached 71 ºC internally. That way you can be sure the turkey is cooked and safe to serve. Spread the butter well under the skin for extra flavor and juiciness. Enjoy!
