3rd year running having a curry. 4 of us no stress, no washing up , no turkey!

my starter at 2pm lamb tikka, followed by special dhansak and a nan, xmas pud and brandy sauce, a glass of bailey's, a mince pie, a cup of coffee well worth the £18 per head :thumbs:

Sounds good that Bluez :)

 

We've finally settled on a mix of duck, goose and pork, a few veg and lots of stuffing. Pud and custard for afters, all washed down with Napoleon brandy and a genuine hand-rolled cigar. Decadence, don't yer just love it :D

Smoked salmon starter with rye bread and cream cheese on a bed of leaves.

Italian style roast chicken (been marinating for three days in olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, fresh thyme, garlic and black pepper) with new potatoes, roasted sweet potatoes and butternut squash and fresh veggies.

Traditional Christmas pudding and cream to finish.

If it goes right, it shouldn't be too heavy.

Sounds like a perfect set-up, that! I have no idea why the majority of British people seem to put so much emphasis (stress!) on one cooked meal!

Nor me: we gave up the Turkey dinner years ago, a quick stir fry does it nowadays, 10 minutes prep, ten minutes cooking, and just one pan to wash.

 

Edit: ...........and we stopped having it at lunchtime too, as we never normally eat a big meal then.

Going to one of our local pubs old 15th century inn for a full on christmas feast ,The pub has a curious game of a hook in the wall a metal ring on a length of string from the ceiling that you release from a point behind a line marked in the floor to try to get it to catch on said hook....not easy when sober near impossible after a shant or 3 .....played for centurys i believe .

Good localy brewed beer and the other half is driving ....RESULT.

Happy Christmas to everyone on AN and have a good one wherever you are eating your Turkey Steve

A haunch of venison from one of my keeper mates in Scotland. Some roast veg followed by mince pies and cream.

A couple of bottles of burgandy with the main meal, a bottle of sauterne with the mince pies and a bottle of Talisker single malt from the Isle of Skye for later :)

Let's agree to respect each others views, no matter how wrong yours may be.

 

 

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity
