{{RecipeIngredients
|1.5 kg [[Shoulder of pork|shoulder of pork]], boned and rolled
| 3 tablespoons [[Oil|oil]]
| [[Sea Salt|sea salt]]
}}
''' [[Stuffing]]:'''
* 1 [[Leek|leek]], finely chopped
* 1 tablespoon [[Oil|oil]]
* 250 g [[Pork sausages|pork sausages]], casing removed or sausage meat, labelled Freedom Food, outdoor reared, outdoor bred, free-range or organic
* 1 eating [[Apple|apple]], cored and [[Diced|diced]]
* 75 g chopped [[Walnuts|walnuts]]
* 8 fresh [[Sage leaves|sage leaves]], chopped

===[[Mise en place]]===
* Preheat [[Oven|oven]] to Gas Mark 4-5, 180°C, fan oven 160°C, 350°F.
===Method===

{{RecipeMethod
| Take the boned and rolled [[Shoulder|shoulder]] joint out of the [[Fridge|fridge]] while you prepare the [[Stuffing|stuffing]].
| Heat 1 tablespoon [[Oil|oil]] in a pan and cook the [[Leeks|leeks]] until soft but not coloured. Spoon onto kitchen paper and drain and cool. Mix together the [[Sausage|sausage]] [[Meat|meat]], cooled leeks, [[Apple|apple]] pieces, [[Walnuts|walnuts]] and [[Sage|sage]].
| Cut the strings from the [[Pork|pork]] joint and open up on a board with the rind side downwards. Make a slit toward the centre of the pork to make more room for the [[Stuffing|stuffing]]. Spoon the stuffing onto the middle of the pork, roll up the joint and secure with [[kitchen string]] in 3-4 places.
| Weigh the stuffed joint and calculate the cooking time - 30 minutes per 450g/½kg plus 30 minutes (medium).
| Pat the rind dry with kitchen paper. Score deeply with a sharp knife and rub the rind with a little [[Oil|oil]] and a sprinkling of [[Salt|salt]].
| Place on a rack in a [[Roasting|roasting]] tin and [[Roast|roast]] in the [[Oven|oven]] for calculated cooking time.
| When cooked, allow the [[Pork|pork]] to stand for 15 minutes.
}}
===Serving suggestions===
Carve and serve with seasonal [[Vegetables|vegetables]].
===Variations===
Use a few of the ingredients you may have left over from Christmas - [[Nuts|nuts]], [[Apples|apples]] and [[Herbs|herbs]]. If you don't have any [[Sage|sage]], use [[Thyme|thyme]] or [[Parsley|parsley]].
===Chef's notes===
To calculate how big your [[Roast|roast]] should be allow 100-175g raw [[Meat|meat]] per person for boneless joints.

Don't forget to Think Pig : http://bit.ly/rspcathinkpig and find out more about the labels you should be looking for to help improve pig welfare.
====The best knot to tie kitchen twine single-handedly====
After much experimenting, I have discovered the best knot to tie kitchen twine on your own is the ''[[Surgeons' knot]]''.
