HOW TO RUIN A PERFECTLY GOOD TURKEY

As you all know I am a very keen cook and love experimenting with new and intresting recipes.
 
This one was by Barney Desmazery and was in the December, 2012 issue of the Good Food Magazine.  (Christmas Turkey with Clementine and Bay Butter)
 
I followed the recipe to the letter but when we carved it!!  It was disgusting, pale, slimey with no flavour except salt.  I have had great difficulty in keeping my Husband from throwing it out.
 
We have now decided to try making a Thai Curry out of it for our family gathering on Saturday and I will report back next week as whether it was edible or not.
 
All I can say is, don't use Barney Desmazery's recipes without trying them out on some unsuspecting soul before you serve them up on Christmas Day.
 
Personally, I shall never use any of his recipes again.
