Ingredients

  • 1 turkey breast fillet (300 g, 0.66 lb)
  • 2 cups mushrooms
  • 2 green onions
  • 2 cloves of garlic, peeled
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • teaspoon ground pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic granules
  • 4 bay leaves
  • ½ cup walnuts

Instructions

  • To make the filling, chop the mushrooms, garlic and green onions, and add them to a pan together with a bit of butter.
  • Leave to cook until the mushrooms are cooked and all the liquid is released.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste, and add the chopped parsley, then leave to cool. Add the chopped walnuts, and stir to combine.
  • Pre-heat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (390 degrees Fahrenheit).
  • Place the turkey breast onto a chopping board, and use a sharp knife to cut it horizontally, but not all the way through.
  • Open it up, then use a meat tenderizer to flatten it up to a cm (half an inch) thickness).
  • Spread the filling over the turkey breast, then roll it up, and use tooth picks to keep it together.
  • Place it in an oven-safe dish, then places a few butter cubes on top, sprinkle the paprika and garlic granules over, and add the bay leaves too.
  • Cover with a foil, then roast for 20 minutes, after that remove the foil, add a quarter of a cup of water, and cook for a further 50 minutes, basting occasionally.
  • Slice it up, and serve it either warm or cold.
