Method
step 1
Heat the oven to 180c/fan 160c/gas 4. Melt a knob of butter in a frying pan then add the celery, onion, 1 tbsp sage and 1 tbsp thyme. Season and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Tip the bread, pine nuts and apricots into a bowl and pour the onion mixture over. Season again and mix well. Lay the meat out flat and spread the stuffing over it. Roll up and tie with string.
step 2
Sprinkle the outside of the joint with the remaining thyme, sage and some seasoning. Put in a baking tin and cook for 2 hours. Leave to rest for 20 minutes, remove string then cut into thick slices.
