Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 kg Canadian Turkey Roast

Tandoori-Inspired Marinade (for one Canadian Turkey Roast)

  • 1 cup Greek yoghurt
  • 1 tbsp garlic clove grated
  • t tbsp ginger grated
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp crushed black pepper
  • 3 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp turmeric powder
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 3 tbsp neutral vegetable oil

Mint and Cilantro Chutney

  • 1 bunch mint leaves picked and finely sliced
  • 1 bunch cilantro finely sliced
  • 1 garlic clove finely grated
  • 1 knob ginger finely grated
  • 3-4 tbsp olive oil
  • lime juice from 2 limes
  • ½ - 1 tsp sugar
  • salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • Defrost your Canadian Turkey Roast in the fridge for two days.
  • Use a pairing knife to prick holes all over your turkey roast (to let the marinade absorb).
  • To make the marinade, mix all the ingredients together. Lather the marinade all over your turkey roast. Let marinate for at least 2 hours before cooking or, ideally, over night.
  • When ready to cook, preheat your oven to 325F. Place your turkey on a roasting tray and roast until internal temperature is 74C, about 2 ¼ hours. Let rest for 30 minutes before carving. Slice and serve with your desired sides.
  • To make the mint and cilantro sauce, mix all ingredients together and adjust for seasoning to your liking. When the Turkey has rested, slice into thick slices and serve with mint sauce on the side.

Notes

Serve your roast with a mint chutney for a pop of bright flavour.
