You will need to ask a butcher to prepare this joint for you. When doing so, ask him to remove all but the last wing joint (use these for the stock) and then to bone out the last section and push it back inside the joint. This will enable him to leave more skin attached to the breast meat.
Serves 6, with some left over for eating cold
1 x 2.75kg/6lb boneless turkey breast joint (i.e. the breast meat from a 6.75kg/15lb) turkey
4-6 fresh bay leaves
150ml/5fl oz wine
300ml/10fl oz turkey stock made from the carcass or chicken stock
25g/1oz butter
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the sausage and chestnut stuffing:
25g/1oz butter
75g/3oz rindless smoked streaky bacon, roughly chopped
1 large onion, chopped
The liver from the turkey (optional)
450g/1lb good quality pork sausagemeat
1 x 200g/7oz cooked and peeled whole chestnuts, broken into pieces
25g/1oz fresh white breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons each chopped sage and chopped parsley
Freshly grated nutmeg
