I have a xmas cake recipe if you want to try it, warning its a family recipe so may not be to your liking

thankyou very much

thanks ill give that a try with its british counter parts, but sounds tasty, tho needs potatoes and dumplings :yum:

sausage roll is sausage in pastry and pigs in blankets was sausages in bacon, even asked the wife she says same, and rang my mum to check also... very confusing. not 100% sure what a gratin is

unfortunately, mac and cheese is completely against my regime of over eating on xmas day, and I don't consider it a xmas meal, even for the kids

no pigs in blankets are sausages wrapped in bacon, at least over here they are

I thought pigs in blankets and Yorkshire puddings went without saying, of course there on the menu. I have a family of picky eaters hence the multiple roasts, some eat some I eat the rest :pig:

this has me curious, never put it in stew, but then not great with stews, do u happen to have a recipe for the stew you make? I'm trying to broaden my kids minds with different foods

Hi there, This year I am cooking for 18 people, I'm doing roast pork, roast beef, roast gammon and a roast turkey crown. I have no problems cooking these... however this year I have more kids here than just my 2 who will eat anything, so my question is does anyone have any ideas to brighten...

you add chocolate chips in it or fruit.. Yorkshire pudding vanilla ice cream and caramel | Good Food Channel or Mars Bar Yorkshire Pudding or even Yorkshire Pudding Profiteroles

yeah all good, I make my xmas cake in august of every year and feed the hell out of it for xmas

I have some jars that are 5+ years old

Touch wood not sick and looking forward to new batch Sent from my E6553 using Discuss Cooking mobile app
