Re: What's for lunch today?
Thanks Patsy, i should have you over for left-overs - about 97% of it is in the fridge. Two of us didn't have much impact. And smug as my post was (I'm not that lacking in self-awareness), I should also add that the sub 5kg turkey spent 3 hours at 200C unstuffed, having been at room temperature before going in the oven unstuffed, and still managed to produce red liquid (I refuse to call it blood) when I cut the leg joint away. Alas squeamish BF was at my shoulder so back in the oven it had to go for another 45 mins. Fortunately I'm quite happy with cremated turkey - the skin was lovely and crispy!

I'm afraid Millhouse was kind of right, but they were actually much tastier today. The potatoes also.
