    For the filling, dice the bread, place on a baking tray and roast in a preheated oven (electric range: 150 °C/ convection oven: 125 °C/ gas: level 1) for about 10 minutes. Peel and finely dice 2 onions. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan and sauté the onions for approx. 5 minutes. Wash the marjoram, shake dry, pluck leaves from the stalks and chop. Deglaze onions with stock, bring to the boil and reduce by half. Season with salt, pepper and marjoram. Peel apples, cut into slices from the core and dice. Mix the bread cubes, apple cubes and onions, cover with cling film and leave to stand for at least 2 hours

    Wash the turkey thoroughly inside and out, removing the offal from the neck pouch or abdominal cavity. Dab the turkey dry and season thoroughly with salt and pepper inside and out. Add the prepared stuffing to the turkey. Close the belly opening with wooden skewers and kitchen string and tie the legs together

    Place the turkey on a greased fat pan of the oven. Cook in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) for 2 1/4-2 3/4 hours. Clean or peel the soup greens and 1 onion, wash if necessary and cut into cubes. Spread everything around the turkey after about 30 minutes. After about 1 1/2 hours pour on 1/2 litre of water and juice. Stir oil and 1 teaspoon curry powder until smooth, coat turkey with it. Repeat about 15 minutes before the end of the cooking time. Then cover the legs and wings with aluminium foil if necessary

Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large pan and roast almonds in it while stirring constantly. Drain the broccoli, place in the pan and season with salt and nutmeg. Toss the broccoli in the pan
