GET AHEAD

Stuffing freezes really well, so this is a great recipe to make ahead of time and pop in the freezer. Just make sure it’s completely thawed before reheating

MAKE IT YOURS

  • Add 100g cooked, crumbled black pudding, white pudding or sausage meat, along with 2 tbsp apple sauce.
  • Add 3 cooked, crumbled crispy rashers.
  • Cook 120g finely chopped mushrooms along with the onions.
