British Goose
Roast goose isn't as popular as turkey for the Christmas feast.
It produces half the meat of a turkey so you're unlikely to get many leftover sandwiches out of it, but it is so delicious!
The flesh is rich and juicy, the skin is the crispiest gold, and the goose fat is like liquid nectar for the ultimate roast potatoes.
Plus goose meat is surprisingly lean. Even the fat is good for you when compared with other fats - it is high in 'heart healthy' monounsaturated fats which can lower blood cholesterol level.
A real special treat this Christmas.

100% Goose
To cook a whole goose, preheat your oven to 200°C. Remove any excess fat from the cavity and prick the skin all over with a fork, taking care not to pierce the meat. Season generously with salt and pepper, then place the goose breast-side up on a roasting rack over a roasting tray.
Roast for approximately 20 minutes per 500g, plus 20 minutes, basting occasionally with the rendered fat. Reduce the oven temperature to 180°C if the skin is browning too quickly. Cook until the juices run clear and the thickest part of the thigh reaches at least 75°C. Rest the goose for 20-30 minutes, loosely covered with foil, before carving.
Serve the goose with rich gravy, roasted potatoes, seasonal vegetables, and traditional accompaniments such as apple sauce or redcurrant jelly for a festive and flavourful meal.
