Remove offal, neck and fat from the goose. Wash the goose thoroughly inside and out. Rub inside with salt and pepper. Cut out the fat gland. Cut white bread into cubes for the filling.

Add marjoram and kumquats, season everything with salt and pepper, stuff goose with it. Close neck and belly opening with wooden skewers and tie up with kitchen string. Tie legs and wings together. Rub with salt and pepper. Put the goose with the breast side on a grid. Pour 1/4 litre of water into the fat pan of the oven and push it under the grill. Roast in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 175 °C/ convection oven: 150 °C/ gas: level 2) for 3-3 1/2 hours. Peel 2 onions and cut into pieces. After 1 1/2 hours frying time turn the goose. Put the onions and offal into the fat pan and add 1/4 litre of water. Fry the goose until it is ready, scooping it several times with roast stock. Turn the oven on approx. 15 minutes before the end of the roasting time (electric oven: 225 °C/ circulating air: 200 °C/ gas: level 4). Fry the goose until crispy. Peel, wash and cut the potatoes into pieces. Cook in boiling salted water for about 20 minutes. Drain, let it evaporate briefly. Heat milk and 25 g butter, add to the potatoes and mash everything to a puree. Season to taste with salt and nutmeg. Lift the goose from the grill and keep it warm.
