What do you like having for Christmas? Doesn't necessarily have to be your main.

Generally haggis washed down with irn-bru.

 

[Edmond]

I usually get 2 for one at pizza hut on Christmas eve, and hey presto, free Christmas dinner


You think I'm joking, it's been done on more than one occasion over the years






*so alone*

 

[Sydrik]

Stollen = 100% pure win
We normally do beef and chicken for xmas dinner round the 'rents.

i like something different on christmas thinking mebbe duck or venison this year or mebbe a 3 bird roast goose duck pheasant could be interesting!

love a bottle of wine on chrimbo its prob the only time of year ill drink it

lots and lots of mince pies! and chocolate log (not the kind no doubt a couple of you will think about straight away)

 

[old.Tohtori]

So now the santamas threads invade freddy like santamas lights the streets and songs the shops? Oh dear.

that being said...

Ham, santamasstars(would have to look up name, can't be arsed, dough stuff), pretty much the usual stuff. Cinnamon covered marzipan though, yummy.

I think some form of beef is on the menu for Xmas day round the parent's and Hainan Chicken for the Boxing Day return leg at ours. Hopefully we'll get pigs in blankets regardless!!

I'd be delighted with this covered in gravy for my christmas dinner.

 

[pikeh]

cranberry sausage meat; sainsburys, £3.20 for a pack. With pancakes on christmas morning.

Boom.

 

[gmloki]

After the Xmas Dinner and a few looses of the belt, them my favourite is Stilton and an obscene amount of Port.

We have Kulebiak......which I've made the past few years. Its a puff pastry roll filled with sliced and sauteed white cabbage, onions and mushrooms and lots of seasoning. Doesn't sound amazing, but I love it, and its what means Christmas to me
Being polish, we also have clear beetroot soup (urgh), raw herring on rye bread (urgh), fish, new potatoes and lots of vodka!

[CorNokZ]

All the baked goods:

Klejner

Jødekager

Pebbernødder

Vaniljekranse

And of course the main course on Christmas Eve with roast pork, duck, caramelized potatoes, regular potatoes, red cabbage, prunes, apples and of course the brown gravy that has been nursed around for an entire day.

As dessert who can forget the Ris a la mande with the hot cherry sauce.. Mmm

The next five weeks better pass fucking fast!!

 

[Gumbo]

Stuffed Loin of pork at my Ma's on Christmas Eve. (A Norweigan thing to do). Christmas Day will be a Roast Turkey I would imagine.

Just about to go and prepare some Road Kill Pheasant I picked up on Friday, yummy!

 

[Appollo]

A giant plate of pigs in jackets please.

This, plus mash AND roasts AND yorkshire pudding! (and pickled onions and brown pickle and and...)

 

[mycenae]

Traditionally we ARE supposed to have carp...but its a hassle to prepare and none of my family actually like it...so we have M&S fishcakes instead

 

[Fafnir]

All the different kinds of pickled herring... mmmmmmmmm.

Cant wait for this either. Haven't had herring in three months now! Give curry herring NOW!

 

[Wij]

Don't much like chrimbo food mostly but will agree with the pigs in blankets yumminess. Why they have to be served with turkey stuffing and veg is beyond me.

 

[Fafnir]

Garlic, mustard, sherry, whiskey, onion herring, and the red onion you have in the traditional herring is so yummy... A herring i dont want ever again is the blueberry one i tried last year was just way to wierd..

 

[Cerb]

Stuffing.

Thankfully, because Americans celebrate some silly holiday where they say thanks or something, I basically get 2 Christmas dinners!

[rynnor]

Roast Chestnuts are pretty nice - Really nicely cooked crispy roast potatoes rubbed with a little salt, cooked in goose fat with lots of fresh rosemary - all the carbs really - its a yuletide carbfest!

Family thing. Her family is half Polish so that side of the family celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve (Wigilia). Means we get 2 Christmas's - Wigilia then normal British Christmas Day.

 

[MYstIC G]

Usual goose or turkey dinner with all the trimmings but the extras we've always had as a family are:
Bread sauce
Panettone
Game Pie

 

[Wij]

Stella and crisps tbh
