I’m doing sprouts (well my mum is bringing those), carrots, peas, roast parsnips, carrot and swede mash and, of course, roast potatoes.

At ours we're having roast potatoes, boiled/mashed potatoes, sprouts and I'm taking the parsnips and carrots.

I'm thinking of doing Nigella's maple roasted parsnips (and adding the carrots to that). Not sure when to cook them though...

Littlelambpeep · 23/12/2017 12:04

Always do sprouts. Carrots and parsnip mash. Then roasties and I will probably pick up something like a veg gratin

blibblibs · 23/12/2017 12:11

Roast potatoes, red cabbage, sprouts, creamy bacon parsnips (best bit of Christmas) and plain carrots so the DC eat a veg. May add in broccoli or peas for them too.

Commuterface · 23/12/2017 12:16

Armadillo last year I cooked my parsnips on Christmas Eve night and reheated them the next day - it worked really well.
