Ingredients

1 kg ready-to-roast free-range turkey breast
1 x 175 g jar preserved ginger, sliced
1 cup verjuice
500 g whole plums

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Glaze the turkey with the ginger slices and syrup and place in an oven tray on the middle rack of the oven for
50 to 60 minutes, or until golden brown.
Just before the turkey is cooked, place a saucepan with the Verjuice and plums on medium heat.
Simmer for 5 minutes or until the plums are soft. Strain and reserve the syrup.
