For a traditional xmas roast turkey, simply remove the whole turkey (5-8 kg) about an hour before roasting, pat it dry thoroughly, season with salt and pepper inside and out, and stuff with lemon, garlic, onion, and a bunch of rosemary, sage, and thyme. Prepare the herb butter by mixing 100 g of softened butter with chopped herbs, salt, pepper, and lemon zest, and rub it gently under the skin on the breast and all over the surface. Place chopped carrots, celery, onion, a knob of butter, and about 200 ml of water or stock in the bottom of the roasting pan, and place the turkey breast-side up on this vegetable bed. Bake at 170°C for about 3-4.5 hours depending on size, covered with foil for the first half of the time, then uncovered to get a crispy skin, and it is a good idea to occasionally pour the baking liquid over it during baking. After baking, it should rest for at least 20-30 minutes to stay juicy.
