SAGE, SAUSAGE AND APPLE DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Put the stuffing cubes in a large bowl and set aside. Butter a 3-quart casserole dish.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and break it up with a wooden spoon. Cook until it loses most of its pink color, but not so much that it's dry, about 5 minutes. Add the sausage and pan drippings to the stuffing cubes. Melt the remaining butter in the pan. Add the onion, apple, celery, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook until the vegetables get soft, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and parsley and bring to a boil.
• Pour the vegetable mixture over the stuffing cubes and toss until evenly moistened. Mix in the walnuts and eggs. Loosely pack the dressing in the prepared pan and cook uncovered until the top forms a crust, about 40 minutes. Drizzle about 2 tablespoons of turkey pan drippings or melted butter over the top. Cook until the top is crisp and golden, about 20 minutes more.

SAUSAGE, APPLE & SAGE ROLL

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Line a large baking tray with baking parchment. Heat 1 tsp of the oil in a small non-stick saucepan and gently fry the onion and apple for 6-8 mins, stirring regularly, until softened and lightly browned. Leave to cool for 5 mins.
• Place 1 sheet of pastry on your work surface, with the short end closest to you, and brush lightly with oil. Place another sheet on top, but off-set roughly 6cm to the right, and brush with a little more oil. Top with the final sheet, off-set another 6cm to the right. The pastry rectangle should be roughly 40 x 45cm.
• Squeeze the sausagemeat from the skins into a large bowl. Add the onion, apple and sage, and mix well. Form the pork mixture into a large sausage shape and place across the pastry, about 8cm in from one short end and 8cm from each side.
• Fold up the bottom of the pastry until it begins to cover the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll the pastry from the bottom, gently but firmly, to enclose the filling. Place on the baking tray and brush with the remaining oil. Bake for 30 mins or until the filling is cooked and the pastry is golden brown and crisp. Serve with mixed salad leaves.
