method
1. First prepare the stuffing. Saute onion in heated butter until translucent. Add celery, walnuts, breadcrumbs and apple and heat for a few minutes longer. Season with rosemary, salt and pepper.
2. To prepare the meat, trim excess fat according to preference. Spoon stuffing onto meat, leaving 2 cm (3/4 inch) clear around the edges, then roll and tie meat with string at 2.5 cm (1 inch) intervals. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Place meat on the rack of a roasting tin, and roast at 160°C (325°F) gas 3 for 20 to 25 minutes per 500 g (1 lb) plus 20 minutes (medium) or 25 to 30 minutes per 500 g (1 lb) plus 25 minutes (well-done).
4. Remove from oven and allow to rest for 10 minutes before carving.
