Xmas dinner

OK Then!!! · 20-12-2007, 16:41

What people cooking?

OK Then!!! · 20-12-2007, 16:45

We're gonna have eggs, bacon and sausage.

Jewels · 20-12-2007, 16:55

Goose with Delia's 18th century chestnut stuffing (yummy!), pigs in blankets, crispy roast potatoes, mashed buttered parsnips, glazed carrots, brussels and gravy.

Pudding and cream

OK Then!!! · 20-12-2007, 17:08

for pudding we usuallt have a supermakret branded chocolate moose.

jojo01 · 20-12-2007, 20:50

How fab, a food and drink section, just come across it for the first time.

I'll be having roast chicken (on my own so pointless buying a massive turkey!), roast potatoes & parsnips, stuffing, sprouts (I love 'em!), mashed swede, cauliflower in white sauce, peas, bread sauce & gravy. Mmmmm.

Haven't decided on desert yet, I'm not a fan of the traditional stuff so might end up buying a chocolate sponge or something.

Well, I'm making Christmas dinner tomorrow as my o/h will be away next week. So I was thinking of making pancakes on Christmas day, as I forgot to make any on pancake day.

Well, I spotted some sausages in the fridge, so I used them and the batter to make Toad in the Hole instead.

Ja'mie King · 26-12-2007, 01:04

we had turkey, boiled potatoes, roast potatoes, carrots, sprouts, turnips stuffing and gravy. Was nice, could have been better tho! (if only I had been making it myself!)

TykeMan · 26-12-2007, 08:15

I had

homemade stilton and broccoli soup
sirloin steak with Yorkshire pudding, potatoes and sprouts

later some stilton, crackers and port.

TommyGavin76 · 26-12-2007, 10:08

We had a Turkey Crown, fantastic it was and not at all dry as the butcher wrapped it in Bacon for me.

26-12-2007, 14:25

We had Turkey, broccoli, carrots, potatoes and sprouts and it was gorgeous

The Exiled Dub · 26-12-2007, 15:37

Didn't have anything as I was at work. However, my best friend cooked an extra portion for me, which she gave to me last night, and it is waiting for me as my dinner today. The full lash, it is.

26-12-2007, 17:13

Aldi's Three Bird Roast.. very nice too

BleatingSheep13 · 19-12-2013, 18:13

Although not directly related to the cooking aspect of Christmas dinner, instead of drinking wine with our Christmas meals, we are considering having sparkling grape juice to drink with our meals instead, just to break tradition a bit.

Crystalline22 · 19-12-2013, 18:23

Daughter is cooking beef, red cabbage, broccoli, gravy, roasties, Yorkshire Puds

A creamy gateau for pudding

Not drinking as a guest doesn't drink and feel uncomfortable drinking round teetotalers.

Will drink when we get home

Does that creamy gateau include anything like black cherries in the jam for it or anything similar?

I don't mind, so long as it has mountains of whipped cream (not Anchor from the can)

Studmuffin · 19-12-2013, 21:35

Out of curiosity BS13, how do you actually find a thread from 6 years ago?
I'm always intrigued when this happens.
I'd read half the page of posts before I realised.
