Mine and dry the turkey, mix the salt with coriander and pepper, and then rub the carcass with this mixture. I clean my apples from the middle, and then cut them into small cubes. Cook the rice until half cooked, and then stir it with apples, small pieces of truffles and chestnuts, madera, pepper with salt and sugar and cherries, crushed into a homogeneous mass. I put this sweet stuffing tightly inside the turkey, which I sew with thread and bake until cooked in the oven warmed to 200 ° C. From a ready-made Christmas turkey with rice-apple-cherry filling stuffed with truffles, chestnuts and madera, I take out the strings with which I sewed it before baking. I cut the bird itself into portions and serve each guest a piece of turkey and a couple of spoons of stuffing on a taredka. I usually prepare it not only for Christmas, but also for the New Year's table. With Christmas turkey, fresh cucumbers and tomatoes are excellent, and parsley with dill will be simply excellent if you sprinkle each slice of poultry with them. Large birds: Turkey and goose - traditional food on the Christmas holiday table for many peoples of the world. This culinary recipe was shared with me by a friend who has been passionate about the Christmas and New Year traditions of Europeans since childhood. Surprisingly, there are a few dozen, if not even hundreds, of Christmas turkey recipes. This is one of those that is not as widely known as turkey with apples or oranges.
