Preparation steps

1.
Heat the oven to 200°C (180° fan) 400°F gas 6. Place the goose on a rack over a large roasting tin.
2.
Prick the bird all over with a fork and place the onion quarters in the cavity. Season the goose well with salt and pepper.
3.
Roast for 1 hour, then carefully pour off the fat from the roasting tin into a large heatproof bowl.
4.
Reduce the oven temperature to 180°C (160° fan) 350°F gas 4 and cook for a further 60-80 minutes, until cooked through. Pierce the thickest part of the thigh with a skewer - the juices will run clear when the goose is cooked.
5.
Remove the goose from the oven and pour off the fat as before. Place on a warm serving platter. Cover loosely with foil and allow to stand for 25-30 minutes before serving.
6.
Cut a ‘lid’ off the top of each apple. Using a melon baller, carefully scoop out the core. Replace the 'lids' and place in the roasting tin.
7.
Drizzle with goose fat and cook for 20-30 minutes until tender, but still whole.
8.
Garnish the goose with chives and lemon zest and serve with the roast apples.
