A turkey crown for two goes from done to dry in about six minutes. No fat cap, nowhere to hide. Over four years of the roast of the day in a pub kitchen, the plate was the unit, never the tray. Two plates is a roast. Every recipe here is that plate, with the tray and the clock to match.
Fifty-four recipes in six Parts. Nine cuts, crown to rack of lamb, each with a temperature beside the time. Nine dinners off one 9 by 13 inch tray. Nine sides in the pan named, nine sauces on the small burner, nine sweets with nothing left on the 27th, and the Eve and Boxing Day either side.
Part Seven is scaling down: the nine cuts to ask for by weight, why a small bird wants more minutes per pound, the per-head table for a third plate, and what keeps and freezes, in days.
Cook the one-tray dinner on a Sunday in November and eat it. Then the 25th is a dinner you have already cooked once.
