Gingerbread Stuffing Recipes

GINGERBREAD STUFFING - A NIGELLA RECIPE DE-GLUTENED

Steps:

• Generously grease a small baking dish/2 pound loaf tin with butter, or completely line a 2 pound loaf tin with baking paper.
• Put the oil and butter in a large skillet/saucepan and fry the chopped onions and apples until soft (10 to 15 minutes).
• Add the chopped bacon and cook for at least a further 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add the clementine zest and stir through.
• Remove the pan from the heat and cool a little (stirring occasionally to help cool more quickly).
• Meanwhile, pre-heat the oven to 200 C/400 F/Gas 6.
• When cool enough, add the beaten egg and pepper and stir through.
• Lastly, add the crumbled ginger cake and fold in gently.
• Tip the mixture into the prepared baking dish and push into the corners. Bake for about 50 minutes (covering with foil for the first 30 minutes to prevent the top from burning), until golden brown and crisp on top.
• Leave to cool in the dish/tin for 10 to 15 minutes before tipping out (or serve straight from the dish)

SPICY LEMON-GINGER BREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, combine the chiles, half of the lemon (pulp, peel and all), ginger and garlic. Pulse together until finely chopped. (Or, finely chop ingredients together with a large knife.)
• Transfer to a bowl, and add the bread, caraway seeds and melted butter. If the stuffing seems dry, squeeze the remaining lemon half over the mixture and toss again.
