Our christmas eve meal is a risotto with green veg inc samphire, all pan fried with some lemon. I wanted to do a nice cocktail but ingredients are so expensive.

Our Christmas day breakfast is going to be something easy and light, good OJ, lots of fresh fruit and porrige and toppings.

For boxing day is going to be left overs with dauphinoise potatoes and spinach and peas added to the veg.

Prawn cocktail - big ones and little ones, lettuce, cherry tomatoes, cucumber and apple - squeeze of lemon.

highland beef roast , beef dripping Yorkshire puds, sprouts, carrots, cauliflower cheese, petit pois, pigs in blankets and gravy.

cheese crackers and with luck a decent profiterole

Good to see you are also all wise to the joy of skirlie, it's just not Christmas dinner without it!

I'm in and out all day doing pet care visits so won't have time for Christmas dinner and I don't like reheated food. I'll just have a chicken, cranberry and crisp sandwich and some trifle afterwards 😋

Haven't decided yet! Home alone and choices are

Cheese bake (Aldi) with part baked bread, prosciutto, pickles etc
Pizza
Curry

I don’t want to derail the thread but do have a recipe for the en croute? Sounds magic.
