Description - Step 1

Marinate the Turkey

Clean and pat the whole turkey dry. Rub the inside and outside generously with yoghurt, turmeric, and salt. Make small slits in the thighs and breast to help the marinade penetrate. Cover and refrigerate overnight. The yoghurt tenderises the meat while turmeric adds earthy colour.
