Ok so I've never made a Christmas dinner, never had it at home and never hosted for others and I'm doing all 3 this year, help!
I've come up with a menu, how does it sound? Anything I'm missing that will be expected? Also how do you cook turkey? I'm a vegetarian but making it for others.
I'm planning on doing as much as possible the day before, prep the veg and make the soup etc. anything other tips to make it all go well?
Starter - Butternut squash soup with bread rolls
Main - Turkey, roast and mashed potatoes, Yorkshire puddings, honey roast parsnips, broccoli, cabbage, carrot and swede mash, stuffing, gravy and mint sauce.
Dessert - Chocolate fudge cake with ice cream.
Drinks - Strawberry champagne and dizzy apple juice for the kids.
