Sausage stuffing is a traditional Southern stuffing for Turkey that is often served as a dressing.

Ingredients:

900g day-old bread
450g sausage
1 onion, finely chopped
2 celery sticks, finely chopped
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
1 tsp dried oregano, crumbled
2 tbsp flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
chicken or turkey stock

Method:

The previous evening, break the bread into small chunks, place in a large bowl then cover with a cloth and set aside to dry a little over night.

The following day, skin the sausages then brown the sausage-meat in a frying pan. Pour off most of the excess fat (leave about 100ml) then add the onion and celery and continue frying for about 8 minutes, or until the onions are tender but not coloured. Take off the heat then sprinkle over the salt, black pepper and oregano.

Turn the sausage mix into the bowl with the breadcrumbs. Scatter the parsley over the top and toss to combine. Now add just enough stock to moisten the stuffing mixture (it should be nicely damp but not runny) then use to stuff the neck and body cavity of your turkey. Alternatively, you can place the stuffing in a lidded casserole, before baking for about 35 minutes.

See the guide to roasting for how to best roast your turkey.
