Sage and Onion Stuffing Recipe

Sage and Onion Stuffing Recipe

Ingredients

15g butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped
½ Vegetable Stock Cube
2tbsp fresh sage leaves
1tbsp fresh parsley
225g breadcrumbs
450g good quality sausage meat

Method

1. Pre-heat your oven to 180°C, Gas Mark 4.
2. Fry the onion in the butter. Add the Vegetable Stock Cube to dissolve with the butter.
3. Coarsely chop your herbs and add them to the pan. Tip: If you use dried herbs make sure you use less because they are more concentrated than fresh ones.
4. Once the stock has dissolved completely and the onion is cooked without colouring, transfer to a mixing bowl. Add the breadcrumbs and mix together.
5. Add in the sausage meat, and use your hands to knead and squeeze the mixture together. Place in an ovenproof pan and flatten – use the same pan you fried the onion and herbs in to put the stuffing mixture back in. It saves on the washing up!
6. Pop into the oven for around 20-30 minutes.
7. Serve the stuffing in cake-like pieces and layer the turkey over the top – perfect!
