Ingredients
| 3 | onions |
|---|---|
| 30g | unsalted butter |
| 30g | dried cranberries |
| 1 | lemon |
| 1 bunch of | sage (20g) |
| 30ml | cognac |
| 300g | panettone or breadcrumbs |
| 1 | large egg |
| 1.2kg | pork belly, deboned, skin on and scored |
| 1 x 1.5kg | whole chicken |
| 1 bunch of | thyme (20g) |
| 1.2kg | beef topside, deboned, fat on, rolled and tied |
Method
Sit the pork belly skin side down on 4 x 60cm lengths of butcher’s string. Pat over half the stuffing, then roll up and tie to secure, poking any escaped stuffing back in. Pack the remaining stuffing into the chicken neck cavity, then pull the skin back over it and tuck under the bird. Put the thyme into the other cavity, then tie the legs together with string, also tucking in the wings and tying it around the middle. Cover it all and refrigerate overnight.
On the day: Get all the meat out of the fridge an hour before you start cooking, rubbing each piece with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and seasoning with sea salt and black pepper. Preheat the oven to 190ºC. Roast just the pork in a large roasting tray on the middle shelf for 15 minutes, then add the chicken and roast for another 15 minutes. Add the beef, basting the meats with the tray juices, and roast for 1 final hour, or until everything is cooked through and the juices run clear. Remove the meats to a platter, cover with tin foil and a clean tea towel, and rest for 1 hour. You can use the tray to reheat your gravy – skim off excess fat, then simmer the gravy (see page 318 of Together ) on a medium-low heat on the hob until hot through, scraping up the sticky bits. Pour any resting juices into the gravy, then remove the string before carving all the meat.
