Not been a good couple of weeks for me, otherwise this would be more elaborate. However still likely to be in first place in it’s class.
Definitely... assuming it's not a cooking class. I mean, 3 of the braver carrots are trying to make a run for it over the potato mountains. Those roasties look far better than the ones I was served today, though, tbf.
The Yorkies are more intelligent than your average pudding. They saw the jug of liquid mud heading their way and quickly abandoned ship with a decent leap. Little pea tried to follow suit but just didn’t have the strength to make it.
Yorkshire went south but happy otherwise. There’s some turkey and gammon in there somewhere.
South?? It looks like it went to the sun!!
Really don’t know @LouisMend if you should lose of gain a point for being the first one to say ‘let’s not bother with plates’ and just tip it all on the table.
Mine doesn't look like much, presentation-wise, but it's the best Xmas Dinner I've ever had. Because of all the Xmas Dinners I've had, none before today have been driven from Lewisham to Barnet for me while I've been suffering from a severe throat and ear infection. Cheers Mum (and Dad), you really knocked this one out of the park. Least I could do was eat (most of) it straight out of the ridiculous dish you brought it in x
Upon reflection, no matter how much your prose qualifies you for a run on Simon Bates’ “Our Tune” it cannot deflect from the fact that you have bloody mushrooms on your Christmas dinner you utter toad….
I'm so confused! I thought they were a staple! And here you're having them as a crime akin to peas, mash or baked beans? Honestly, fry them in butter and a bit of garlic (and thyme) for ten to fifteen minutes and they'll go well with any Xmas plate as a bit of textural variation (their main job is to carry a hit of garlic ofc)
For Boxing Day brunch I simply reorganised my mum's finest into being on an actual plate this time and it was just as brilliant second time around. Xmas Dinner twice? If you're ill and alone it's fine, them's the rules

Enjoy your lumpy mashed taties and mushy pees. Up there with the finest!
(In all honesty, I do like your Yorkshire puddings).

Less a plate.More a Pen.
Christ alive fella.
You've got 98% of the Wiltshire pig population lined up there!
Turkey sandwiches, bubble and squeak, cheese board, leftover pigs in blankets, crisps, chocolate etc.
Thinking of making samosas later with leftover turkey, roast potatoes, carrots etc, the Patels would be proud.
