OK serious foodies alert!!!!!! Run us through what you're planning for your Christmas and new year celebrations!

[moondog]

No talk of Paxo or Bisto puhleeeeeeeze!!!!!!

How about the booze issue????

I think Christmas Eve will be a seafood feast as usual (crabs from the lleyn peninsula are the best in the world!)
Lashings of Miuscadet to accompany and perhaps tropica lfruit afterwards.

Christmas Day.......goose and stuffed apples with spiced red cabbage,brussel sprouts,root vegetable mash (turnip,parsnip and carrots with cream and nutmeg) and roast potatoes. Good Burgundy avec
Smoked salmon and caviar blinis to start with vats of Champagne.
Christmas pudding,Stilton and oatcakes with a Sauternes.

New Years Eve....rolled pork belly and quince compote followed by a pavlova. Not sure of the accompaniments or the wine at present.

Over to you lot.....

myrrh,your menu sounds great. Lol at the bottles of fizzy nonsense! I've got a few of those. Am hiding the best stuff for moi.
Enid,no fresh crab here either.
Too stormy for the boats to go. I am having locally smoked salmon instead. What with,I wonder???

Just ate most brilliantly fab steak and kidney pudding (nigella recipe) with runner beans, new potatoes and quite a few glasses of fizzy yummy stuff. vvv good and am now feeling too full to contemplate:
krispy kreme doughnuts left out for santa
smoked salmon, crème fraiche on blinis
Roast Goose with Apple sauce, red cabbage, braised celery & roast potatoes
Christmas pudding (yuk)
Goose Sarnies (if any is left)
Sausages and duck eggs
langoustines avec aoili
Wing rib with horseradish sauce, Yorkshire puddings, roast potatoes & parsnips & veg

All of which we have planned for the next few days- huzzah.
