  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.

  Fairly easy to make, goes very well with pork and the guests will be impressed that you've bothered to make it yourself.

  Made this stuffing last night for stuffed pork steak, it was spectacular. I did omit the egg as I felt the mix was wet enough and I wasn't going shaping it into balls, it wasnt missed at all. I also used olive oil instead of butter and that worked well too. I will use less hazelnuts next time as a little goes a long way and they are very calorific. I'll definitely make it again and am thinking of using some sage instead of parsley next time to see how that works.

  I made this for Christmas dinner 2008 and 2009 - and I'll be making it again this year. I use chestnuts instead of hazelnuts because I make another stuffing that uses half a pack of vacuum chestnuts so this uses them up. It tastes great along side the roast turkey, and equally good in cold turkey sandwiches afterwards. The citrus cuts through the richness of the Christmas dinner without being overpowering. I just love it.

  I make this into a loaf, fantastic. TIP: Make sure the breadcrumbs are very fine and chop apricots well.

  Was wonderful! Stuffed into Turkey at Christmas and was absolutely first class! Used almonds instead of hazelnuts (what I had in cupboards)... On par with rustic chestnut stuffing!

  I did this stuffing with our turkey for Christmas and it was great. I put some in the neck, and the rest I rolled into balls, drizzled with olive oil, and baked. I did over cook the stuffing balls, even so they tasted v. good. I will definitely do this again next year. I must have saved loads of calories by not using sausage meat.
