3Lightly salt and pepper the inside andstuff the cavity with the coarsely chopped apples, prunes and onionquarters.
4Close by lacing skewers or by sewing with heavy white thread.fasten the neck skin to the back of the goose with a skewer and trussthe bird securely so that it will keep it"s shape while cooking.roast goose on a rack set in a shallow open pan for 3 to 3 ?hours(about 20 to 25 minutes per pound).
5As the goose fat accumulates in thepan, draw it off with a bulb baster or large kitchen spoon.
6Basting thegoose itself is unnecessary.to test whether the bird is done, pierce the thigh with the tip of asmall sharp knife.
7If the juice that runs out is still somewhat pink,roast another 5 to 10 minutes or until juices run clear or pale yellow.when done, turn off oven leaving the finished bird to set with the doorajar for 15 minutes to make it easier to carve.transfer the goose to a large heated platter and remove the string andskewers.
8Scoop out the stuffing and discard it.
