Prepare the chicken, duck, and turkey by butterflying them and beating them out to about half a centimeter thick.

Chop onion and garlic, then fry them in a pan until soft.

In a food processor, combine 2 cups of cooked quinoa, dried cranberries, a handful of almonds, parsley, and coriander, and blitz until mixed.

Line a bench with plastic wrap (Glad wrap).

Lay down a layer of turkey, followed by a layer of chicken, then a layer of duck breast, and finally add the stuffing mixture on top.

Roll the layers tightly using the plastic wrap, ensuring to remove air as you go, and tie off the ends to secure it like a sausage.

Place the rolled meat log in cold water and slowly bring it to a boil, ensuring it sinks.

Cook for about 25 to 30 minutes until the meat feels firm and bounces back when pressed.
