1. Fry onions in the butter. Stir in nuts; fry until golden. Remove from the heat, add apricots, breadcrumbs, parsley and lemon zest. Mix in the egg and season. Use half to stuff the neck end of the turkey; shape the rest into balls.
2. Put the balls in a buttered baking dish, then drizzle with oil. Bake for 30 mins until golden, or roast them around the turkey.

  I used about 75g of chestnuts in place of the hazelnuts and seasoned it with a pinch of nutmeg, cinnamon and ground cloves as well as salt and pepper. It went wonderfully with roast pork.
