Strewth, Pete! When do you start preparing all those vegetables?
My Mum always used to put the sprouts on for Christmas Day.....................on Bonfire Night. She would then attack what remained with a potato masher. So much for 'Al Dente'.
Mind you, her gravy was to die for.

Hi all I think model making spills over into many areas, I used to cook Christmas lunch for 12 and now reduced to just 7 including two vegetarians.
I do all the cooking anyway.
But it is great when you just sit down and eat someone elses cooking!

Hey this all looks lovely this, but, in the UK there is a t.v. advert where the chef beat people up who do home cooking - cos they don't use the Company 'Just Eat' :-) does anyone want the link, cos its in me favourites :-)

Veggies take minutes to prepare. I only steam my veg unless it's roasted. Peeling spuds is the worst.
Also many years ago I went back to old school cooking using beef dripping or lard for roasting. Tastes a lot better than veg oil.

In France we also have our Weecksteed.

It is called GAZOULAND.

Every days a team cooks the speciality of its region, with cheeses, wines, pastries.

It is always a great moment of pleasure.

Made it for Weecksteed, you will not regret.

All we get at Wicksteed are cremated offerings off the bbq and a well deserved bacon roll on sunday plus free tea and coffee all weekend. Not that I'm complaining,  would not have it any other way!

So many good suggestions on this thread I don't know where to start.


Nice looking pies Stavros :-))


On a French/English forum I used to go on they had photo competitions each month were the members would send a photo by pm to the admin, he would put them up without a name attached and people would vote for the best (various topics)....... Is that a reasonable suggestion or a bit much to ask?


I just remembered another recipe I made, I had some leftover lamb (how is that possible?) and I put it into a pan with some fried onions, peas and diced carrots. I made a thick gravy and then poured it into a bowl lined with Atora suet pastry. Popped a lid of suet pastry on and steamed it until the pastry had expanded. Result :-))  a fantastic (even though I say it myself) steamed lamb pudding........ Hits your stomach like ballast keeps you warm as a mis charged lipo.......... U2

My Favourite food is Bacon pudding made with Suet pastry and lots of bacon:O) Bake it in an oven and serve with roast potatoes and some vegetables.

Tip for Veggies. If you boil them with your rice then I think the rice absorbs the vitamins etc as it plims up. I take this as I have boiled rice and red cabbage together and the cabbage turns the rice blue:O) You can also make purple gravy with red cabbage water:O)

Getting kiddies to eat their greens (or in this case 'reds') may be easier if you tell them that the Purple Gravy or blue rice or red cabbage are Martian food specially cooked for them!

Your event, being a week long! looks fun Gazou:O)

Talking of pies, I made a chicken and ham pie last night for my tea.



I bought a pack of puff pastry, a tin of chicken in white sauce and a tub of ham noggin end for a handsome price:O)

The chicken in white sauce, while quite tasty had a dollop of mustard added along with a load of the ham and then ladled into a pie case.

And all plated up with mash, greens and gravy.

Tonight's menu roast potatoes Yorkshire and hunter's chicken pie with thick stand your spoon up gravy with cauliflower and cabbage,  maybe parsnips and sweetcorn ( I'm gong scrumping for the veg today) hopefully will be picking up some early walnuts as well. The sloe berries are a trifle late this year round here. But I will be looking out for them.

I used to do all the cooking. Now restricted to friday sat and sunday due to night work. Plus  I  BBQ all year round. I even done a BBQ on Christmas day a few years ago. Turkey steaks,  sweetcorn jacket spuds, baked parsnips and roast veggies.  Followed by traditional Christmas pudding. That was a hard pudding to cook on a bbq.

All year round BBQ hats off to you......


Ballast
Like the look and sound of your pie......I came in from my garage last night at 10 to 8 and by 9pm we were eating a cheese and onion pie and there was an apple pie finishing off in the oven.


It wasn't until the last triangle that I thought mmmm I should have done a photo.... Ah well!


I put diced apple in a pan with sugar and water, almost evaporated the water and added a touch of cream and butter which turned into a sort of caramel sauce....... Delicious mmmmmm I'm finishing it today  :-))


I like this thread it inspires me...... U2
