A delicious twist on the classic Christmas turkey with orange and rosemary.

I’ve been using this recipe for years and it never fails.

I get a whole turkey, take the legs off to bone and stuff them with sausagemeat. Frozen turkey works well as you can thaw/brine it at the same time.

The stock after 8 hours. So much inedible meat on a turkey when you bone it. Perfect for stock and then you simmer your stuffed rolled legs In it for another few hours in it. More flavour.

Sprouts on the stem. Much fresher.

The end result. Forgot the turkey leg, still sitting in the fridge.
