How to make a delicious Christmas cranberry stuffing with bacon
- Preheat the oven to 190°C (170° fan) | gas 5.
- Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper.
- Heat the oil in a sauté pan set over a medium heat. Add the onion, apple, and a pinch of salt, sweating until softened, about 5-6 minutes.
- Tip out into a mixing bowl. Add the dried sage, pork mince, and some more salt and pepper to taste.
- Scrunch together with your hands until thoroughly combined.
- Shape the apricot halves around one or two cranberries.
- Shape the pork mixture into a rough rectangle shape with the apricot enclosed in the centre.
- Press the remaining cranberries into the pork.
- Wrap the pork with the bacon rashers, four across the centre and four around the ends of the pork to secure it.
- Place on the baking tray and top with the bay leaves.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden-brown and cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and let cool briefly before slicing and serving.
