Turkey Recipe Stuffed with Nuts
Ingredients
- 1 turkey weighing eight kilos or more
- 2 cups of chopped nuts (raisins, peanuts, walnuts)
- 1/4 kilo of minced meat (beef or pork)
- 100 grams of chopped ham
- 100 grams of chopped bacon
- 1 small packet of butter
- 1 cup croutons
- 1 cup of chopped celery
- 2 liters of fruit juice (peach or pear)
- 2 tablespoons of flour
- White wine
- Salt and pepper
Preparation of Turkey stuffed with nuts
- We defrost the turkey from the refrigerator, from one day to the next of its preparation. It is not too much, wash it and clean it and put it to soak overnight with the peach or pear juice, turning it from time to time.
- In a pan, put two tablespoons of butter, fry the bacon, ham and reserve.
- In the same fat in the pan, fry the minced meat. Add the onion, celery, nuts, croutons, and white wine.
- Let the filling cool. Brush the inside and outside of the turkey with butter, salt, and pepper. Fill in and close.
- Now empty the flour into an oven bag, shake to distribute it evenly, insert the turkey and close well. Make three incisions in the bag so that the turkey comes out very juicy.
- Put in the oven and reserve the juice that the turkey released to make the sauce with the cooking juices along with the giblets.
Accompany the stuffed turkey with a good garnish of puree, cooked vegetables, a salad and a cream of celery or mushrooms. Enjoy!
