    Plug the neck and belly opening with wooden skewers and tie up with kitchen string. Tie legs and wings together. Season the goose with salt and pepper on the outside and put it on the oven rack. Push the fat pan of the oven underneath.

  4. 4

    Pour on 1/4 litre of water. Roast in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 175 °C/ circulating air: 150 °C/ gas: level 2) for approx. 4 hours. Wash the offal and neck. Clean and wash the carrots and cut them into large pieces.
