Preparing the Goose
Gather the Ingredients
The first step in preparing your Christmas goose is gathering all the necessary ingredients. You will need a 5-6 kg goose, 1 onion, 1 orange, 1 lemon, 1 apple, 1 carrot, 1 stick of celery, 2 cloves of garlic, 1 bunch of thyme, 1 bunch of rosemary, 1 bay leaf, 200ml white wine, 200ml chicken stock, 2 tablespoons of cranberry sauce, 2 tablespoons of honey, 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper, and olive oil. Make sure to thoroughly clean and dry your goose before starting the cooking process.
Prepare the Stuffing
Next, it's time to prepare the stuffing for your goose. In a bowl, mix together 1 cup of breadcrumbs, 1 chopped onion, 1 grated apple, 1 teaspoon of dried thyme, 1 teaspoon of dried sage, 1 tablespoon of chopped parsley, salt and pepper, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Stuff this mixture into the cavity of the goose, and secure with skewers or tie with kitchen twine.
Cooking the Goose
Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas 4. In a roasting pan, place the goose breast side down and rub the skin with olive oil. Place halved onion, orange, lemon, apple, carrot, celery, garlic cloves, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf around the goose. Season the goose with salt and pepper.
Cook and Baste
Roast the goose in the oven for 2 hours, basting occasionally with the pan juices. After 2 hours, carefully turn the goose over and continue roasting for 1 hour, basting every 20 minutes. The goose is done when the juices run clear and the internal temperature reaches 74°C.
Making the Gravy
Remove the Goose and Rest
Once the goose is done, remove it from the oven and place it on a platter. Cover it with foil and let it rest for 20 minutes before carving.
Make the Gravy
While the goose is resting, make the gravy. In a saucepan, combine white wine, chicken stock, cranberry sauce, honey, and balsamic vinegar. Bring it to a boil and then let it simmer for 10 minutes, until it thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve and Enjoy
Once the goose has rested and the gravy is ready, carve the goose and serve it with the delicious stuffing and flavorful gravy. Your Christmas goose is sure to be the star of your holiday feast, thanks to Mary Berry's mouth-watering recipe. So gather your loved ones, raise a glass of mulled wine, and enjoy this traditional and delicious Christmas dish.
