This delicious sausage and Parmesan stuffing recipe by Louise Robinson will pair beautifully with your Christmas main. The little parcels of herby, savoury sausage meat are tied together with a ribbon of smoked pancetta and topped off with a crispy sage bow.
Melt 50g of the butter in a frying pan over a low heat, add the shallots and garlic and fry until soft but not browned. Set aside to cool
