For the stuffing balls

Method

- While the potatoes are boiling, make the stuffing balls by putting the herbs, egg, lemon zest and pork in a bowl. Season to taste, mix with your fingers to combine and divide into eight equal portions. Shape each one into a ball, spread them out in a roasting tin and roast for 35 minutes.
- Sprinkle the mixed herbs over the chicken, spray with low calorie cooking spray and roast with the stuffing balls for the last 25 minutes of cooking.
- Cook all the vegetables in boiling water for 6-8 minutes or until tender, or steam for even fresher tasting veg.
- Make up the gravy according to the packet instructions.
