desperately seeking an easy but delicious meal to make for ten adults. One pot would be fabulous. Tasty and warming please.

just agreed to cook for ten this weekend and zero time to plan so need to organise a delivery then prepare just before.

thank you!

A lovely veggie curry with rice, naan and popadoms!

Slow cooker pulled pork, pork shoulder fat cut off and a bottle of BBQ sauce we use Aldi then pop on low for 8 hours pair with a Mac and cheese and some crusty rolls and grated cheese.

Chicken and chorizo pasta bake is always a crowd pleaser. Do you have any food allergies or intolerances to cater for?

maybe baked Camembert and fresh baguettes as a starter.

Any large one pot : curry, chilli, etc will be fine with sides. Think rice or jackets or garlic bread and salad or beans or naan bread etc
I find the problem is with getting a pot large enough so concentrate on protein and meat. Don't waste valuable space on potatoes in the pot, have them separate along with other side stuff
Last time I was cooking for lots I did enormous cottage pie with loads of roasted veggies, fresh greens and a massive cauliflower cheese. Half the guests cancelled but it still all went 😬

Thank you so much, everyone. In the mad world that is my life this week I forgot to look at this last night! Will think properly now but know one of these will work

no allergies or intolerances.

thank you!

Cassoulet. Always goes down well. I add duck and sausage for the meat eat eaters and keep the veg one without. Crispy bread on the side.
I cook a lot of Indian food but would not do curry unless I wanted to do a few choices naan and sides. Everyone has different favourites, if the people eat a lot of curry maybe only one person would really enjoy it.

Cook a chilli and pop it in a slow cooker to stay warm, then do a load of baked potatoes and make up a baked potato station with all the trimmings. Or curry etc with all the trimmings, again kept warm in the slow cooker
