who knows how to make stuffing?

put all that on an oiled baking sheet and bake in the oven til brown on top. the rest will be gooey and lovely.

is amazing with gravy.

I hope to do it half the justice mum does tomorrow

Itr doesn't sound all that, but if it's right - is amazing, and so simple!

500g chesnuts
1 small onion finely chopped
1 head of celery chopped
25g butter
12 plump prunes, stoned, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon, chopped parsley
50g fresh breadcrumbs
liver of the bird
1 egg beaten
Salt and pepper

Sweat the onions and celeryin the butter, add the chesnuts prunes and parsley, remove from the heat and allow to cool, then mix in the rest of the ingredients.

the Larousse Gastronomique has the following recipe for 'American Stuffing'

Finely dice some smoked belly pork (pancetta, streaky bacon) and fry, add some finely chopped onion and sweat without colouring, remove from the heat and add fresh breadcrumbs untill all the fat is absorbed. |season with salt and pepper, a little sage and finest thyme.

Hope that helps

You can't really go wrong with some kind of sausage meat for your turkey, add, what you like; chestnut, sage, onion, ginger, cloves, mace, nutmeg, etc.

RONG - Paxo fucking rules

I mean, I could just eat Paxo with Bisto instant onion gravy every day (and often did as an impoverished student)

my favorite part of Thanksgiving, hands down.

I'm getting ready to move to Newfoundland from the states, and I've found on my trips there that stuffing is the de facto side dish! Lotsa places serve hot turkey sandwiches with stuffing on the inside, covered in gravy! You can also get your fries with stuffing and gravy! LOVE NFLD.

My favorite stuffing recipe ever:

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups cubed whole wheat bread
3 3/4 cups cubed white bread
1 pound ground turkey sausage
1 cup chopped onion
3/4 cup chopped celery
2 1/2 teaspoons dried sage
1 1/2 teaspoons dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 Golden Delicious apple, cored and chopped
3/4 cup dried cranberries
1/3 cup minced fresh parsley
1 cooked turkey liver, finely chopped
3/4 cup turkey stock
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degree F (175 degree C). Spread the white and whole wheat bread cubes in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes in the preheated oven, or until evenly toasted. Transfer toasted bread cubes to a large bowl.
In a large skillet, cook the sausage and onions over medium heat, stirring and breaking up the lumps until evenly browned. Add the celery, sage, rosemary, and thyme; cook, stirring, for 2 minutes to blend flavors.
Pour sausage mixture over bread in bowl. Mix in chopped apples, dried cranberries, parsley, and liver. Drizzle with turkey stock and melted butter, and mix lightly. Spoon into turkey to loosely fill.

I bought a whole charcoal-rotisserie chook the other night from the local really awesome chicken place. And watched in quiet dismay as she jammed the tongs up its butt and extracted the whole plug of stuffing! Probably wouldn't have been all that nice I suppose but boooh.
