Ingredients:

100g shallots, sliced
240g tinned button mushrooms, drained
2 tbsp butter
550g cooked rice
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1 tsp basil
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp freshly-grated nutmeg
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp freshly-ground black pepper

Method:

Melt the butter in a pan, add the shallots and mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the onions have softened.

At this point stir in the rice, parsley, basil, garlic powder, nutmeg, salt and black pepper. Toss gently to combine then turn into a well-greased 1l ring mould or baking pan. Cover with foil then transfer to an oven pre-heated to 170°C and bake for about 20 minutes.

Alternatively the stuffing can be used to stuff the neck and body cavity of a turkey before roasting (the quantity given here should be enough for a 2.2kg turkey).

See the guide to roasting for how to best roast your turkey.
