Preheat the oven to 190/375F/Gas 5.
Rub some salt along with the quartered lemon pieces on the inside of the turkey.
Put the parsley, onion and lemon pieces in the inside of the turkey.
Tie the legs of the turkey together and secure the neck flap with a wooden skewer.
Mix the butter with rosemary and thyme and rub the mixture all over the outside of the turkey.
Sprinkle salt and pepper over it.

Place the turkey in a roasting tin greased with a little butter and roast it in the preheated oven.
To check if the turkey is cooked, insert a skewer into the thigh part and the juices should run clear and not pinkish.
