It's that time of the year again for all Americans - the Thanksgiving day! So for all my american friends, here it is: Chinese Roast Turkey

Ingredients:
1 10 - 12 pound turkey
6 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 teaspoons five-spice powder
2 cloves garlic, pressed
1 10-12 pound whole turkey
12 scallions, cut up
several sprigs cilantro

Preparation:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Combine first 5 ingredients and rub over turkey to coat. Pour remaining sauce into cavity. Add scallions and cilantro. Place turkey in a roasting pan. Roast 20 minutes per pound, until a meat thermometer registers 180 degrees.
Let stand 15 minutes before carving.
