However you fancy it. Simple as that.

I suppose if you are stuffing a bird, it makes sense to have it dry to soak up the juices but that option rarely makes sense here. A "normal meal" here is a meal for 3, we all love stuffing but I'm the only meat eater - on the odd occasion I have meat and they say have a nut roast, it makes more sense to cook the stuffing separately so we can all enjoy it.

I suppose the point there is that although stuffing presumably was "designed" to be used as SRS said, there is no reason why stuffing should only be used that way.
