Secret hideaway in the pennines |
As it's only going to be me for Christmas dinner, I am not going down the traditional route.
This year I am splurging.
Pan fried scallops with black pudding to start.
Roast venison haunch with a redcurrant reduction and trimmings, to be decided
And a Christmas pud cheesecake.
What are you doing for your Christmas dinner |

That sounds delicious can I come?
I’m doing traditional ish.
Camembert starter or Moroccan spiced soup for those that don’t eat cheese.
Turkey and gammon and all the trimmings.
Undecided on desert tbh maybe make a cheesecake. But will have mince pie and Christmas pudding as well as profiterole options too |

"I dunno how people fit a starter in on Christmas day.
I don’t know why you wouldn’t make room.
I always have a seven course fish dinner the day before too  "
. I'm usually so full I can't even hit the cheese in the evening. |

I'm driving up to my brothers house... No idea what his wife will be cooking for me!
I will cook for myself on boxing day.. Pudding will be White Chocolate, Orange + Pistachio Pudding. There will be roasties, or pan-fried garlic potatoes and there will be parsnip croquettes... Maybe a pistachio-pea puree... Not sure what else yet |

Do you at least have pudding? There’s always room for pudding, it doesn’t go to your stomach it goes straight to your heart  |

I'm making Christmas dinner for the first time ever this year.
Turkey and lamb with all the trimmings.
Christmas pudding and cornflake tart.
It's just a roast dinner with a few extras ain't it?

For the 9 years except for one I have had pizza, I put turkey on it to make it more festive.
And this year I am not going to break with tradition it's going to be pizza with a big glass of wine. |

Going to my brothers for Christmas - that man can cook!!! Turkey (and gammon) with all the trimmings and usually 2 or 3 desserts and you have to have a bit of all of them or he gets the right hump then at some point in the afternoon he will produce a yule log and single cream. I'm going to savour every moment and every mouthful as I'm working next Christmas |

We don’t have breakfast generally then start dinner early around 12-1 starter then main. Often don’t have desert until 5/6 rarely eat anything in the evening too sometimes some cold meat around 9 we graze on Christmas Day and take a long time between courses |

The same as last year.
Turkey Wellington:
Sage and onion stuffing mixed with sausage meat spread across the turkey joint, a layer of cranberry sauce, lovingly rolled in pastry. Honey roasted veg, boiled veg, pigs in blankets, sprouts in blankets and a port based gravy sauce.
I was looking at pictures of last Christmas and of course I took a pic of dinner... My mouth is watering already! |

Going to my brother's and hoping for a traditional meal. He's a very good cook but likes to try something different. Sometimes you don't fuck with a formula! |
