Turkey Roll Sushi Food

BACON-WRAPPED TURKEY ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Set a wire rack on a baking sheet.
• Lay 1 turkey breast smooth-side down on a cutting board. There will be a thin side and a thick side. At about the midway point between them, slice horizontally into the thick side to within 2 inches of the outer edge so that you can open that side like a book and have 1 long piece. Pound the turkey with a mallet to an even thickness of about 1 inch. Repeat with the remaining breast.
• Place a large piece of parchment on a work surface. Arrange 12 slices of bacon horizontally on the parchment in 6 lines, with 2 slices of bacon slightly overlapping per line. Arrange the 6 lines so they are touching but not overlapping, with the ends lining up to form a rectangle. Working with the remaining 9 slices, weave the bacon in an over-under pattern by lifting alternating slices of the horizontal bacon lines and vertically placing a slice of bacon over or under as needed to create a woven lattice design.
• Place the turkey breasts horizontally on the bacon, overlapping slightly. Scoop the stuffing into the center of the turkey. Holding the bacon and turkey, roll them up away from you, making sure the roll ends up seam-side down. (Use the parchment to help you keep the bacon and turkey together as you roll.) Tie with twine in 3 spots across the roll and once lengthwise. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake until the internal temperature registers 155 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 1 hour 40 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes. Let rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Slice and serve with the gravy and cranberry sauce.

PRAIRIE SUSHI

Steps:

• Mix the cream cheese, basil, chives, parsley, lemon juice, and sprinkle with salt and pepper together in a bowl. Lay out the tortillas and spread with the herb cream cheese mixture. Next, layer on the turkey, carrots and cucumber onto each tortilla. Like making sushi, roll the tortillas up tightly, then wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate, about 1 hour. When ready to serve, unwrap the sushi rolls and slice into quarters.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED TURKEY ROLL

Steps:

• Beat the cream cheese, mustard and lemon juice together in a bowl, then season with a little salt and pepper and set aside.
• Butterfly the turkey breast by cutting into one side of it so you can open it like a book. Cover with cling film and use a meat mallet or rolling pin to gently bash it out to a rectangle about 3cm thick, trimming the edges to neaten it up. You can reserve this trimmings to use in another recipe, such as a turkey curry.
• Lay a large sheet of baking parchment on your work surface. Lay the prosciutto over it, overlapping the slices to make a rectangular shape larger than the turkey, then place 8 sage leaves all the way down the centre of the prosciutto in a line, lengthways. Lay the turkey, skinned-side down, on the prosciutto and spread liberally with the cheese mixture. Use the edge of the baking parchment to lift and roll the prosciutto and turkey, tucking and rolling it as you would a roulade, to form a long log. Tie at intervals with string. If chilling, wrap well in cling film and put in the fridge. Can be prepared up to this point, then chilled for up to two days.
• To cook, heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Remove the cling film and put the turkey roll seam-side down on a baking tray. Brush with a little oil and roast for 1 hr, or until the prosciutto has crisped up and the meat is cooked all the way through (a digital probe should read at least 70C). Scatter over additional sage leaves, if you like, and leave to rest for at least 15 mins before carving.
