Put the chopped herbs, egg, lemon zest  and pork in a bowl and season to taste. Using your fingers, mix the  ingredients until well combined. Cover and chill for 3-4 hours (or  overnight if time permits). Preheat the oven to 180\u00b0C\/160\u00b0C Fan\/Gas 4. Calculate the cooking time of the turkey at 45 minutes per 1kg plus 20  minutes (so a 4kg bird would take 3 hours 20 minutes). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Place the turkey  in a non-stick roasting tin and sprinkle over the parsley and mixed  herbs plus the zest and juice of two lemons. Season and spray with low  calorie cooking spray. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Halve the remaining lemons and stuff this into  the body cavity along with the onion, garlic, sage. Tie the legs  together with kitchen string. Stuff the neck cavity with half of the  stuffing mix. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cover with foil and roast in the oven, basting with the juices in the  tin every hour or so. Increase the temperature to 200\u00b0C\/180\u00b0C Fan\/Gas 6  and remove the foil for the final 30 minutes. Remove the turkey from the  oven, cover with a \u2018tent\u2019 of foil and leave to rest for up to 2 hours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, make the stuffing balls.Divide the remaining stuffing ball  mixture into 12 bite-sized balls. Halve each bacon rasher lengthways and  use each piece to wrap up a stuffing ball. Place them seam side down in  a non-stick roasting tin and roast in an oven preheated to 200\u00b0C\/180\u00b0C  Fan\/Gas 6 for 35 minutes or until cooked through. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remove the skin and any visible fat from the turkey and place the bird  on a serving platter. Garnish with bay leaves and serve with the  stuffing balls and all the trimmings <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Slimming World roast turkey and stuffing balls - FREE\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2Hcl8g8ZO4U?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SOURCE : <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCuc-skMhbfti3RZ9aWy3WWQ\">Slimming World<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Push the boat out this Christmas with our sensational version of the season&#8217;s essential dish: roast turkey and stuffing.
