At Flare we especially enjoy slowing life down and enjoying time with the people we love. It&#8217;s what we&#8217;re all about.<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This winter we wanted to give you a super simple way to create a magic moment at your place. Get the Christmas decorations out and gather the family, stop for the evening and celebrate each other.<\/p>\n<p>This recipe comes to you in partnership with Andrew Mackle, Al Brown&#8217;s Executive Chef.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #d94100;\">Step 1: Watch the video below<\/span><\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_medium\"><\/div><div class=\"w-video align_none ratio_16x9 has_iframe\"><div class=\"w-video-h\"><iframe title=\"Youtube video player\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GfMmu1YUMwQ?autoplay=0&controls=1&origin=https:\/\/flarefires.com\/en_au\/&loop=0&mute=0\" allowfullscreen=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/iframe><\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_medium\"><\/div><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><h4><span style=\"color: #d94100;\">Step 2: Buy a boneless stuffed turkey from your local up-market grocery store or butchery<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>A good supermarket like a Faro or something similar near you will have boneless stuffed turkey&#8217;s, otherwise visit your local butcher and put in an order.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #d94100;\">Step 3: Light your Flare Fire at least 1 hour before cooking<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>A good idea is to feel the front of your Flare outdoor fireplace. If the concrete feels warm, you know the masonry is heated through and the fire will generate a consistent cooking temperature.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4966 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/flarefires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Fire-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #d94100;\">Step 4: Tie up your turkey and place onto the rotisserie<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Your turkey may come stringed, but it&#8217;s a good idea to add some more. Use butchers twine, which you can buy from the supermarket. Normal string can catch fire.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4968\" src=\"https:\/\/flarefires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Tie-1024x571.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"571\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4967\" src=\"https:\/\/flarefires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Rotisserie-1024x580.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"580\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #d94100;\">Step 5: Rub in oil and season<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>We prefer using a good quality olive oil, and we think everything tastes better with salt.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4971\" src=\"https:\/\/flarefires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Oil-and-season-1024x570.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"570\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #d94100;\">Step: 6: Cook for an hour and a half over a good ember base<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>If you have a thermometer aim for an internal temp of 74c. Once done remove from the heat, remove the rotisserie bar, wrap in tinfoil and a tea towel or two. This will hold the temperature for a while and let the juices reconstitute through the meat. If you need to hold the meat for a while longer whilst the potatoes are being cooked, wrap the turkey well in a big towel or sheet and place in a small chilly bin or bag. It could stay like this for an hour or so without losing much heat.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4973\" src=\"https:\/\/flarefires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cook-1024x573.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"573\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #d94100;\">Step 7: Cook some baby potatoes with mint leaves<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Cook your potatoes all the way through. This typically takes 15-20 minutes in boiling water, add salt to the water.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4942\" src=\"https:\/\/flarefires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2802-1024x692.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"692\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #d94100;\">Step 8: Make a mess<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Once cooked place onto the hot plate. A swing frame is great for this as it makes it easier&#8230;but the normal swing frame is just as good. Add some oil, salt then partly crush the potatoes with a potato masher. Fry them until they have a good colour on them. Add some dollops of butter and salt along the way to make them taste great!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4972\" src=\"https:\/\/flarefires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mess-1024x571.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"571\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #d94100;\">Step 9: Dish up<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Unwrap the turkey, cut the strings off, cut it into slices and plate it up.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4959\" src=\"https:\/\/flarefires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2951-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #d94100;\">Step 10: Don&#8217;t freak out about about the amount of steps<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>We&#8217;ve just tried to break it down into a number of really simple steps.
