Form the log tight, garnish the top of the stuffing with some extra sage leaves or cranberries for example, drizzle with olive oil and bake at 190c for about 30 minutes. In the last image you can see the oven dish stuffing with a lovely golden crust.
The log stuffing should be made a day or 2 ahead of time so that you can unwrap it when cold and carve, just make sure the slices are at least a couple of cm thickness.
