Fan assisted
ovens cook at a higher temperature - consult the manufacturer's handbook. Cook the turkey in
a conventional oven at 190*C, 375*F, Gas Mark 5. Cover loosely with foil. To brown the bird
remove foil for the last 40 minutes of cooking.

/15Lb. Above this weight allow 15 minutes per 454g/1Lb, plus 15 minutes.
