Stuck in blighty this year so told my parents I'll cook & they can come around.
Roast chicken/veg/potatoes with stuffing, Yorkshire's.Might try a brandy marinade.
Is it my imagination or do we have this thread every year
(Starting a bit earlier each year, of course!)
Not sure. But you can never have enough food chat.
Pretty much.But this year it's special/different.data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
Oh yes, that's why we have a food forum data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
Mimosas are 50/50 Champagne and orange juice, while Buck's Fizz is two parts Champagne to one part orange juice.
(Even as I typed that I thought I sounded like a right old pedantic wotsit... As if anyone should be measuring properly on Christmas Day. Or, indeed, any day.)
But, this year, we don't have the Food Grinch data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
This one. You'll need a large food grade plastic bucket for the part where you add the gallon of iced water.
Turkey Brine Recipe
Going to have picky pits in Orlando on Xmas day.
But....we're each having exactly what we ideally want the week previous in the UK, so I've chosen to have a Chicken Dhansak with special fried rice, onion bhajee and a Peshwari naan from my favourite local take away. data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
No starter, but will be having Eggs Benedict for brekkie.
I don't do Xmas really anymore. I might put the small fibre optic tree up for a week odd but that'll be it.
Thanks nabby.
