Mix the garlic, thyme, zest and oil together and place between the skin and flesh of the turkey. Fill cavity with stuffing. Truss the turkey following the NEFF demonstration video. Place on a wire rack, on top of the universal tray lined with baking paper. Insert the MultiPoint MeatProbe fully in to the breast, entering in from the shoulder.

Turkey Jus
Place the chicken stock, beef stock and red wine in a medium to large saucepan. Place on Induction level 8 or FlameSelect® level 9 and bring to the boil. Add the garlic, thyme, honey and mustard then simmer on level 5-6 and reduce by half.
Mix the cornflour and water together and whisk into the jus, simmer for a further 10 minutes and then strain through a fine sieve. If you have pan juices from your roast turkey add them just before the cornflour mix.
Notes
If using a frozen turkey, please ensure that it has been fully defrosted.
Using VarioSteam® and the MultiPoint MeatProbe makes this recipe foolproof. While the added steam ensures that your turkey remains moist and flavourful, the meat probe monitors the internal temperature of your meat, automatically switching off your oven once it's been cooked to perfection.
