Soon the New Year and we are slowly beginning to think about what to cook for the festive table. On New Year's Eve, I start cooking a turkey stuffed with prunes, apples and walnuts. Decorate the finished dish with lemon, herbs and decorative cones. Nice, tasty and festive.

It is necessary

  • - 1 medium turkey;
  • - a little salt;
  • - a little black pepper;
  • - 1 glass of sour cream;
  • - 50 g butter;
  • - 50 g of mayonnaise.
  • For filling:
  • - 1 glass of rice;
  • - 500 g of prunes;
  • - 500 g of walnuts;
  • - 500 g of apples.
  • For baking:
  • - 75 g of vegetable oil.

Instructions

Step 1

We wash the turkey, if there are feathers on the carcass, then boldly remove them.

Step 2

Put the prunes in a bowl, fill with warm water and leave for ten minutes. Then we drain the water, rinse and dry.

Step 3

Wash apples, peel, remove cores.

Step 4

We wash the rice from impurities.

Step 5

We turn prunes, walnuts and peeled apples in a meat grinder. Mix the filling with the rice.

Step 6

We fill the turkey with the filling, sew up the abdomen.

Step 7

In a cup, mix sour cream, mayonnaise and softened butter, salt and pepper to taste (if you wish, you can add a little paprika). Lubricate the turkey carcass with the resulting mixture.

Step 8

Grease the heat-resistant form with vegetable oil (you can bake the turkey on a baking sheet, this is optional). We put the turkey in the form.

Step 9

Set the temperature to 180 degrees on the oven, heat it up. We put the turkey in the oven and bake for about two hours. When baking, pour a small amount of melted fat over the turkey.

Step 10

Put the finished turkey carcass on a dish, remove the strings. Decorate with thin slices of lemon and sprigs of fresh herbs (to taste).
