Making a turducken... part 2
8:32pm: chopped and Ricked celery and four onions
Rick, above, is a Thermomix (he's named after the guy who sold him to us). He's like a blender on steroids and after plastic surgery to add scales and a stove element. He's a bit enthusiastic about chopping... we seem to have wound up with onion mousse.
And we're already deviating from the recipe - it calls for 3 cups of onion, but since we chopped it so fine we think it's packed down more than usual, so only putting two cups in.
Now we de-sausage the spicy sausage meat for Stuffing A. Americans seem to call what we'd call mince, sausage, so we've got spicy sausages which we're turning to mince. When I say "we", this part is entirely Bloke's job. As he says, he's a boy and doesn't mind getting his hands dirty.
My job is a lot easier... I'm making Stuffing B. From a packet.
Stuffing A:
* celery
* onion, browned together
* spicy sausage meat, browned
* paprika (yep, more)
* garlic (yay)
* chicken stock
* breadcrumbs
Stuffing B:
* two packets of stuffing mix
* water according to the recipe on the back of the packet
Quote from Bloke: "meeeeaaaaat".
Apparently calling him Bloke makes him sound like a bimbo. Should I ask him what he'd like to be called?
