SIMPLE CORNBREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• Tear up bread into shreds or bite sized pieces and leave out to dry for a couple of hours while you make the cornbread and chop the onion and celery. Bake the cornbread (I often make a 9x13 pan the night before and we have some of it for dinner, saving the rest for the stuffing.) Put the bread into a very large bowl and crumble cornbread over the bread cubes. Sprinkle with sage, a little salt, and pepper, add parsley.
• Saute' the onion and celery in butter or oil until translucent. Mix this with 2 cups of the chicken broth, and whisk in the 2 eggs. Pour the sauteed vegetables, broth, and egg mixture over the "two breads" mixture and mix gently with your hands. Add more broth as needed until the mixture is well moistened, but not soggy. Taste for salt and sage amounts and add more if needed.
• Spoon stuffing into one very large or two medium greased casserole pan(s) or into the turkey cavity and bake until done (30-40 minutes) at whatever temperature you have everything else in the oven baking. Usually 350 is the best - watch that it doesn't dry out. You have to be flexible on Thanksgiving or whenever your oven is being used for other things!

CORNBREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• First, make the cornbread. Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Butter the base of a 25cm ovenproof dish and line with baking parchment. Combine the semolina, flour, baking powder, bicarb and ½ tsp salt in a large bowl. Whisk the melted butter, eggs, buttermilk or yogurt and chillies together in a jug and until combined. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry, stirring until just combined - be careful not to over-mix. Pour the cornbread batter into the pan and bake for 40-50 mins until golden, then cool completely in the tin.
• Turn the oven up to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Fry the bacon in a large frying pan or skillet over a medium heat for 5 mins until it is starting to crisp up and release its fat. Remove to a board, leave to cool slightly, then roughly chop. Tip the onion, garlic and celery into the pan and fry for 8-10 mins until the vegetables are softened and golden. Add a splash of water the mixture starts to catch on the bottom. Stir in the sage.
• Tip the vegetable mixture into a large bowl and leave to cool slightly. Cut the cooled cornbread into 2cm cubes, then add to the bowl of veg along with the chopped bacon. Season and toss to combine. Tip the stuffing mixture into a roughly 20 x 30cm casserole dish. Mix the eggs and vegetable stock together in a jug, then pour this over the stuffing in the dish. Bake for 15-20 mins until the stuffing is golden brown and crisp at the edges.
