Ingredients
- turkey - 1 (prepared for roasting)
- salt - to taste
- duck fat - as needed
- mussels - as needed (cleaned and prepared)
- cooking juice - as needed (from the turkey)
Instructions
- Prep the Turkey: Tie the turkey with string, making sure to secure the legs and wings close to the body.
- First Roasting: Place the turkey in the oven and roast for 30 minutes.
- Add Duck Fat: Remove the turkey from the oven, apply duck fat on the surface, and season with salt.
- Second Roasting: Return the turkey to the oven and roast for another 30 minutes.
- Final Roasting: After the second roasting, check the turkey's internal temperature. Continue roasting until it reaches 72°C at the heart, approximately after a total of 2 hours of cooking.
- Prepare Mussels: While the turkey is roasting, prepare the mussels by cooking them until they are hot.
- Serving: Once the turkey is ready and rested, carve it and serve with the mussels. Drizzle some cooking juices over the top before serving.
