Our Christmas spice blend is very versatile and doesn’t have to be used for Boxing Day leftovers! Try making turkey mince (or any other mince) meatballs, and yes, the recipe includes cranberries!
Try this delicious stuffing with your turkey: a spicy mix of sausage meat, chestnuts and cranberries. You can either make balls, as in our photo, or stuff the turkey with it. And the leftovers are gorgeous hot or cold or added to bubble and squeak!
