Ingredients
For the Turkey:
1 10-12 lb kosher turkey
2 large onions, sliced
2 stalks celery, sliced
1 cup water
1/2 tsp. salt
For the Stuffing:
4 cups challah bread, cut in cubes
1/4 cup oil or parve margarine
2 stalks celery, finely diced
1 onion, finely diced
1 cup mushrooms, finely diced
2 large eggs, beaten
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
For the Basting:
3/4 cup oil
1 tbl. paprika
salt and pepper to taste
Directions
- Rinse unfrozen turkey and pat dry.
- Place sliced onions and celery on the bottom of a large roasting pan. Add water and salt, then place a small rack over the vegetables (if you have one).
- Prepare the stuffing by soaking the challah in water until soft (gently squeeze out water). Saute vegetables in margarine for about five minutes and mix challah, vegetables, beaten eggs and spices.
- Stuff the chllah stuffing into the turkey and reserve any leftover to bake alongside the turkey in a greased dish (baste occasionally).
- Place the turkey breast-side up (on a rack if using) in the roasting pan.
- Bake at 325 degrees (F) (about 20 minutes per pound) basting occasionally with the oil and spice mixture
- At about 2/3 of the total cooking time (approx. 2.5 hours), loosely cover the turkey with a sheet of foil to prevent overcooking.
- To confirm that the turkey is done, use a meat thermometer to check the thigh temperature (180 degrees) and the breast temperature (160 degrees)
- You may wish to remove the foil for the last few minutes to brown the skin more. Let stand 20 minutes before carving.
