I love a good turkey brine and I will be using diet cranberry juice to create a most wonderful brine for my turkey I’m going to start with one bottle of diet cranberry this is 1.89 L per bottle and I will add more later I’m going to pour
It into a pot and I’m going to allow it to heat up once it comes to a boil I’m going to add half2 cup of of salt two red chilies four to five slices of lime 4 2in pieces of cinnamon bark five green cardamoms 1 teaspoon of black
Peppercorns and 1 T teaspoon of cloves it’s important to heat up the cranberry juice as I want the salt to dissolve and I want all of the spices to infuse with the juice I’m always looking for ways to incorporate less sugar and this only has
1 g of sugar per cup allow this to steep for about 15 15 to 20 minutes and then make sure it cools down completely my turkey is about 7 lb and I’ve allowed this to defrost and drain once it’s ready I’m going to place it in a
Container that can hold the bird and I’m going to pour over the cool Ocean Spray cranberry brine that I created and I’m going to top it off with another bottle of diet cranberry juice you want to make sure that you can cover the bird as much as possible I’m always looking for ways
To incorporate less sugar and this only has has 1 g of sugar per cup brunning the bird makes it completely soft and juicy and it allows the flavor to permeate through the meat I’m going to put the lid on now and I’m going to allow this to chill in my fridge
Overnight once the bird is brined remove and drain it completely and throw away all of the brining liquid you’ll notice the color that it’s left on my turkey while the turkey drains I’m going to prepare my special spicy blend that’s going to coat the turkey in a bowl I’m
Going to add 1 tbsp each of red chili cumin and coriander powder I’m also going to add half a tbsp of turmeric add in 2 tbsp of ginger and garlic paste and 1 cup of whipped yogurt salt to taste now I’m just going to whisk this all
Together I’ve placed my turkey in my rooster breast side down and I’m going to add some of the marinade to the bottom first I’m going to paint it and and spread it all over the bird and then I’m going to flip it over now add the rest of the marinade and
Just paint the bird and make sure there’s a nice layer of that marinade all over the skin to get a really nice gravy to serve with the bird I’m going to add the Tucky neck and some of the oile that came with the bird like the liver Etc I’m going to
Add one cup of sliced onion one red chili a couple of slices of Ginger and I’m going to throw in 2 to three mushrooms cover this and add it to a preheated oven that was heated at 350° and cook this for about 2 hours while the bird is cooking I will quickly
Spice up my whole Berry cranberry sauce add some oil to a pot and add in 1 tbsp of sliced green and red chip chilies I’m also going to add 2 tbsp of ginger and garlic paste and I’m going to allow this to sauté in the
Oil next add in 1 tbsp of chili powder and half a tbsp of cumin powder did you ever wonder why the ocean spray cans are opened upside down well according to a spokesperson it creates a seamless serving experience the cans are filled and labeled upside down with a rounded
Edge on the top and a sharp can like Edge at the bottom to keep the product whole check this out and it does come out whole indeed I’m going to smoosh this in add some salt to taste and I’m going to keep it aside now for a quick garlic and
Cranberry stir frry rice to go with my turkey add some oil to hot walk and add in 1 cup of sliced onion allow the onion to sweat a little bit next I’m going to add in half a cup of crushed garlic I want the garlic to
Sweat as well and I don’t want it to burn to make this festive I’m going to add in some Ocean Spray crains this super food is going to B Jewel my rice add about half a cup and you can certainly add more if you
Wish and next I’m going to add in 3 cups of day old basti rice I’m going to season this lightly with 2 tbspoon of light soy sauce and mix this well together after about 2 hours I’m going to remove the lid and I’m going to base the bird with the
Juices and now I’m going to continue roasting this open you’re going to cook your turkey according to the size of your bird in my case it’s going to take another hour or so I will regularly base in between to keep it moist and delicious the brine makes the meat super moist and Incredibly
