Goose liver and sausagemeat stuffing
- Published: 13 Nov 23
- Updated: 18 Mar 24
This rich sausagemeat stuffing for roast goose is bolstered with the goose’s liver and given zing with pickled walnuts.
Stuffing is a great vehicle for peelings otherwise destined for the bin. If you’re making this stuffing as part of our zero-waste Christmas dinner, use the peelings from the carrots and parsnips, plus the whizzed peelings from the roast potatoes.
- 6 slices with leftovers
- Hands-on time 15 min, plus cooling and chilling. Oven time 45 min
Ingredients
- Peelings from 400g carrots (about 3), 400g parsnips (about 3) and about 1.3kg potatoes (use the peelings from our zero-waste Christmas dinner)
- 2 tsp goose fat (from preparing the goose gravy, if making our zero-waste Christmas dinner)
- 1 tsp caraway seeds
- 50g shallots, finely chopped
- 20g pickled walnuts, chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, chopped
- Finely grated zest ½ orange (use the other half in our orange and honey-roasted carrots and parsnips)
- 150g bread, whizzed into breadcrumbs
- 1 goose liver, finely chopped (from the roast goose, if making our zero-waste Christmas dinner)
- 400g outdoor-bred pork sausagemeat
Specialist kit
- 900g loaf tin (or similar size baking dish)
Method
- Pulse all the peelings in a food processor until finely chopped. Heat the goose fat in a frying pan over a medium heat, then add the caraway seeds and shallots. Cook for a few minutes until the shallots have softened, then add the whizzed peelings. Cook for 5 minutes until everything has softened. Add the pickled walnuts and garlic, cook for another minute, then tip into a bowl and leave to cool.
- Add the zest, breadcrumbs, liver and sausagemeat, season with a pinch of salt and pepper and use your hands to mix everything evenly. Pack into the tin/dish, then cover and chill for at least 2 hours (or overnight).
- Heat the oven to 200°C fan/gas 7. Roast for 45 minutes. Keep warm until ready to serve. Turn out and slice at the table.
