Method

  1. Chop all the leftover potatoes and vegetables into small chunks.​ 
  2. Melt the butter along with the olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Scatter in the sage leaves and crisp up for 1 min. Add the potatoes, veg and stuffing, using a potato masher to break everything up, then make a flat, even layer in the pan. Season and fry for 4 mins, until the bottom is crisping up.​ 
  3. Use a fish slice to fold up the crispy bits from the bottom back into the mashed veg and then flatten down again. Keep doing this process for around 15 mins, until everything is golden and crispy.​ 
  4. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C.​ 
  5. Prepare a muffin tin or loosely line a small baking tray with foil, creating 8 wells for the Yorkshires to sit in. Evenly spoon the crispy veg into the Yorkshire puddings, pushing deep into the bottoms and place on the tray. Top each one with pieces of Brie and the cranberry sauce.​ 
  6. Cook in the oven for 5-7 mins, until the cheese is melted and oozy.​ 
  7. Serve alongside some dressed watercress.
