I wouldn’t use egg. or Paxo what's the cranberry sauce for?

NonSequentialRhubarb · 19/12/2023 20:53

I've never used an egg. Just mix the paxo and the sausage meat then cook.

No the pack will work like breadcrumbs so no need for an egg.

But, cranberry sauce?? Surely not

JamieKnows · 19/12/2023 20:55

Ah, you need dried cranberries not sauce 😂

Thank you !

I saw other recipes were talking about binding with egg.

I had a mild panic moment !

No egg needed.
Cranberry sauce might make it sloppy. Should be dried cranberries I think

RosesAndHellebores · 19/12/2023 20:56

I'd use the highest quality sausage meat I could lay my hands on 1lb. I'd add a cup of finely chopped onion, gently sweated. A tablespoon of chopped sage, perhaps a little thyme, a squeeze of orange, black pepper, some finely chopped smoked bacon fried off, a cup and a half of white breadcrumbs. I usually cook it in a buttered oval pie dish.

JamieKnows · 19/12/2023 20:56

You don't need pack either tbh.

Just get sausagemeat, a small onion diced, one crust breadcrumbed, a small pack of cranberries, your preferred herbs. Mix it all up and roll into balls

No just mix the sausagemeat with the stuffing that’s had the boiling water in it. Then I would put it in an oven dish and spread the cranberry sauce over the top almost like a glaze.

I think I might do this for my stuffing actually

Using it as a glaze is a good idea

I cook my sausage meat, onions and celery, then add to the stuffing mix. If you wanted cranberries, I would add fresh or frozen whole cranberries at this stage. Bake in casserole dish with lid on.

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER · 19/12/2023 22:22

I use egg but that’s for sage, onion and sausagemeat stuffing made from scratch.

Dogsandchocolaterule · 19/12/2023 23:03

I always add an egg.

Paxo, water, egg, sausage meat and breadcrumbs on top.
