to be honest though, i see marcs point
turkey tastes just as good when its just roasted and served with veg and gravy, ramsey has made it a bit complicated
much like jamie olivers "ham" sandwich on the adverts
"take some ham, cress, tomato, mustard and goat entrails, put them in a panini and there you go, a perfect ham sandwich"
anyone else see the problem there?

The point is, turkey tastes of crap, you need to give it some flavour to make it edable.
Putting lots of good stuff into a sandwich is a good thing, if it takes you a minute to make a sandwich rather than 10 seconds but it tastes better, I can't see the problem there.

Nor do I.
I take about 5-10 minutes to do my lunches, be it for work or college.
And without a doubt I always get comments about how good my lunch looks and who made it etc

Yeah, that's what Jade Goody went into after Big Brother.
As for my turkey recipe, I like them raw. With feathers. Gobble Gobble.

he's a chef. thats what he does.
same way a mechanic or car enthusiast etc. would spend lots of money on cars...
why not just put petrol in, turn key, drive? 
anyway, i'd rather have gordan's turkey
