Notes: Great old fashion English dressing for Turkey or Chicken. I would never let a holiday of by without it, my family loves it over Brussel sprouts also.
The first Christmas I got married 1965 I telephoned my nan for the receipt, she was a great cook. I loved to have her tell me how to make this dish (even though I knew how by now) so I called every Christmas Day until she died. I always think of her when I make this recipe.
