New Year bits and bats – my choices …


a stuffing or a nut roast!

Long before I realised I didn't like meat the one meal I always looked forward to was a Sunday roast – strange I know. I loved Yorkshire Puddings but my absolute favourite was stuffing. Over the years I've developed my own which can be a straight forward stuffing, a nut roast or – my personal favourite - the ultimate sandwich filling.

A stuffing or a nut roast

170g/6oz breadcrumbs
Generous sprinkle of dried sage
80g/3oz chopped chestnuts
40g/1½oz unsalted butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped
200ml/7 fl oz boiling water
200g/7oz puréed apples

You can make stuffing balls or bake it in a loaf tin using a cake liner. It's entirely a matter of choice – I prefer the loaf tin/liner method and then slicing. The loaf tin measures 25x14x6.5cms, that's 10x5½x2½”.

Pre-heat oven 200fan/220c/Gas 7.

Bake for 25/30 minutes.

It freezes well too!
