What vegetables do you cook for Christmas dinner?

What vegetables do you do for Christmas dinner?

Roast potatoes
Parsnips
Carrots
Peas
Broccoli cheese
Brussels sprouts

Sweet potatoes, normal potatoes, roast carrots, parsnips, roasted beetroot, steamed Brussels and if dd was here/more guests peas but not bothered this year, only 3 for dinner

Not bothering with mashed swede either this year

If I had my own way;

Potatoes - roasted with herbs and mash/colcannon.
Parsnips - roasted.
Carrots - steamed.
Swede - steamed.
Petits Pois.
Runner Beans.
Red cabbage with Caraway.
Broccoli.
Cauliflower.
Sprouts and chestnuts.
Baked apple.

(Then stuffing and bread sauce, redcurrant sauce, gravy, etc - and some meat).

As it is, as I apparently relinquished overall control of food and catering when DP wasn't working a few years back, we are having

Roast potatoes with herbs (NO GARLIC, I WILL END YOU IF YOU PUT GARLIC IN MY CHRISTMAS DINNER)
One roast parsnip.
Steamed carrots.
Steamed swede.
Frozen peas.
Sprouts.

He's asked if he really has to bother with cooking 1.5 carrots and whether the parsnips and swede are strictly necessary when there are potatoes, sprouts and meat to 'fit on a plate'.

I will either be up and preparing the veg before him (most likely as he could represent England in the sleeping Olympics) or there will be murders done.

This year, carrots, sprouts and red cabbage (prepped in advance and frozen - actually improves it) . I sometimes do roast parsnip (singular) but only I like it.

We are having
roast potatoes
Honey roast parsnips
Braised red cabbage
Mashed swede
Baby corn

Sprouts

Cauliflower cheese

Carrots

Roast potatoes

Broccoli and cauliflower cheese
Braised red cabbage

(Served with turkey, gammon, bread sauce, stuffing, pigs in blankets and gravy. Controversially, no yorkshires this year!)

Far, far too much food for 4 of us, but I'd ordered my meat and veg back when we were in tier 2, and was expecting 2 other households to join us for Christmas. Sadly tier 4 and just the 4 of us now:(

Broccoli for DD aged 4 as she won't eat sprouts or carrots.

Can't bloody wait.

Merry Xmas!

These all sound so delicious! Christmas dinner is my favourite meal of the year so I can't wait! I just love turkey and all the trimmings, even sprouts

Those of you who roast your carrots, do you par-boil first or just chuck em in? And how long for please?

Merry Christmas to you all - I hope you all have a lovely one, even though it might be very different to usual.

Root vegetable mash, roast potatoes, roast parsnips, carrots and Brussels sprouts

Roast potatoes and parsnips in the oven. Roast peppers, sweet potatoes and onions in the Actifry, peas in microwave and then carrots, sprouts, cauli, brocolli, mange toutes and cabbage on the hob. List displayed on nearby cupboard so I don’t forget to cook or serve any!

Roast potatoes
Dauphinois potatoes
Honey parsnips
Carrots
Might do some peas for the kids
I do like red cabbage but it needs about 4 hours cooking and I haven’t started it so will do it for boxing day

Same as every day as we don't do a "Christmas meal" - so carrots, parsnips, sweet potato, broccoli, beans, peas, courgette and spinach.

However, reading this has made me realise we need to start adding onions and garlic back in - we dropped those and I forgot how much I like them! Maybe I'll dig out the frozen ones for tomorrow after all...

Whenever we've roasted carrots, we've just cut them lengthways, drenched them all in olive oil and put them in with the rest of the veg. No parboiling needed!

Steamed sprouts and carrots
