• Leftover Turkey

  Hi, I'm making Turkey for Xmas and I was wondering how sucessfully you can freeze leftover cooked turkey. There is so much leftover food at Xmas it would be great to be able to pull it out a few weeks later when we're not so overwhelmed with food and make the turkey hash recipe etc. Thanks very much.

• Cooking boned and rolled turkey joints

  I had my whole Christmas dinner planned and was ready to follow the Nigella recipe's to the letter. I've been really exctied about brining the turkey and got all the ingredients needed. Now comes the problem....my sister-in-law bought the turkey and thought she was doing us a favour by buying a boned and rolled turkey from the butchers. It's good quality but assuming as it's pre-stuffed I can't brine it. What do I do now? I need a recipe asap. Ppppppleas help me. 

  CAN I BRINE A BONED AND ROLLED TURKEY? BMCP

• Rocky Road

  I make Rocky Road every year but want, this year, to give it as a present. (It is the recipe with two lots of chocolate and brazil nuts and cherries). Can I freeze it or has it a long shelf life, perhaps in the fridge?
