Bread Stuffing

Stuffing isn’t just for the Christmas chicken—It’s also a great side for when you have stale bread on hand.

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees celsius. Arrange bread in a single layer. Toast until dry, and pale golden brown. This should take around 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool.

  2. Prepare your baking dish by lightly greasing all surfaces with butter.

  3. Meanwhile, in a large pan, melt the butter over medium temperature, and add in the onion, celery and garlic. Stir frequently until the onion and celery are soft, this should take between 5-7 minutes. Once softened, transfer the mixture to a large bowl and season with salt and pepper.

  4. To the bowl, add in parsley, eggs, and the cooled bread and stir to combine.

  5. Next, slowly add in the chicken stock, one cup at a time, stirring until absorbed. Season generously with salt and pepper and transfer the stuffing mixture to the large baking dish. Bake until deep golden brown on top, around 25 to 30 minutes.

  6. Let the stuffing cool for 5 minutes before serving—enjoy!
