It's never too late to learn how to stuff your Christmas turkey. Our Michelin star chef Jeff has compiled this simple step by step guide on how to perfect your stuffed festive turkey this festive season.
"The stuffing can be flavoured with many flavours, I like to use chopped prunes & orange peel but you can let your imagination go wild. Use your favourite flavours & try swapping the chestnuts for mixed seeds. Other herbs can be used such as parsley, lovage and/or fresh thyme."
If you're looking to elevate your Christmas turkey with a delicious stuffing, look no further. This classic stuffing recipe is designed to complement the flavours of a juicy Christmas Bronze Whole Turkey, making it the perfect choice for your festive meal. Whether you opt for a simple sage and onion mix or experiment with seasonal ingredients like cranberries, chestnuts, or even a twist of citrus, this stuffing will enhance the flavours of your bird and make your dinner truly unforgettable.
In nine easy steps, you will have cooked a delicious stuffed turkey the whole family can enjoy this Christmas. To get started simply:
5. Tuck the wing tips under body to avoid over-browning while roasting.
6. Next, loosely spoon the remaining stuffing into the body cavity. Tie the drumsticks together with kitchen (butchers) string.
7. Place the turkey breast side up on a trivet of vegetables in a shallow roasting tray.
8. Brush with melted butter. Season with sea salt then insert an oven-safe meat thermometer into a thick portion of the inner thigh area, not touching the bone or use an instant-read thermometer towards the end of roasting time.
9. The thermometer should read a minimum of 70°C in the thickest part of the bird & the centre of the stuffing, when pierced the juices should run clear.
Note: this stuffing also works well with goose, duck, cockerel & game birds.
