If you're looking for an easy way to cook goose, we recommend using our recipe below. This recipe takes just four hours to prepare, so it's perfect if you're short on time. Simply follow the steps below and you'll have a delicious roast goose in no time!

Ingredients:

1 goose (approx. 5kg)

15g butter

2 onions, quartered

3 carrots, quartered lengthways

2 leeks, quartered lengthways 3 bay leaves 4 cloves garlic, peeled and left whole 200ml white wine or apple cider vinegar 100g pack of sage leaves, chopped large handful of fresh thyme sprigs or 2 tsp dried thyme​​​​​​​

​​​​Instructions:  

1) Preheat oven to 220C/fan 200C/Gas 7. Remove all fat and giblets from inside the goose cavity. Trim any excess skin off the outside of the bird. Soften butter and put it inside the bird cavity with the onions, carrots, leeks, bay leaves and garlic. Season well with salt and pepper. Spread out the sage and thyme on a piece of kitchen foil big enough to enclose the bird. Sit the bird on top and bring up the sides of the foil so that it's well sealed. Put in a large roasting tin half-filled with boiling water (careful not to let any water splash onto the bird). Roast in preheated oven for 2½ hours then remove from roasting tin and set aside somewhere warm to rest for 30 minutes whilst you make gravy (see point 5). Discard vegetables from inside cavity - they're not worth eating!

2) To make gravy: Tip all fat from roasting tin into a heatproof bowl (or alternatively pour it into a jug and then refrigerate until solidified). Place tin over medium heat on hob and add flour - stir constantly until flour becomes deep brown in colour (30-40 minutes). Gradually whisk in stock - you may need more or less than specified depending on how fatty your goose was - until gravy reaches desired consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper then strain through fine sieve into serving jug. Carve Goose & Serve: Cut off wings at first joint & reserve for another use (such as making stock). Cut Goose into 8 portions by slicing down through breast meat & backbone - try to keep each portion as equal in size as possible. Arrange carved Goose portions onto warmed plates & serve with gravy poured over & some crispy roast potatoes on side. Enjoy!
