Good ideas for a murder mystery night.

[Ostryga]

Very chill evening with friends, but I am providing food. Want something lovely that doesn’t have a million components so I’m not stuck in the kitchen all night.

Lasagne. Something like that you can make ahead and just put in the oven

This time of year, a chicken and tarragon casserole or coq au vin - both can be cooked ahead and popped in a slow cooker. There is a delicious magazine easy tarragon chicken casserole with potato and veg in the dish - so no need if you don't want to do anything extra.

Pudding make something ahead of time to just pop I the oven Delilah Smith lemon self saucing pudding is nice and she does it with oranges, lemons and lime - same pudding but all three fruit - serve with cream. Ive made before and placed on the side ready to pop in oven as we are eating main course
