Jamie Fab festive food for all the family
MOST Christmas cooks have got the hang of the turkey so the greater challenge is to make your festive table really stand out from the crowd.
These great recipes for seasonal favourites from Jamie Oliver could be just what you need to make that statement.
Jamie says: “Christmas is a time for indulgence when nobody wants to compromise.” But that does not mean you have to spend a fortune, or spend hours in the kitchen. Many of the recipes from the celebrity chef ’s new show, Jamie’s Quick & Easy Christmas, have just five ingredients.
He says: “Whether you’re a good cook or not, everyone’s nervous.
“You’ve got in-laws coming round or it’s your first time hosting Christmas dinner. There’s a lot of emotion in the air. So Jamie’s Quick & Easy Christmas is about doing an awesome Christmas with five-ingredient recipes.
“Empowering people to have more confidence, more free time and get a bit more organised.”
He adds: “Christmas is the one day of the year when cooks and non-cooks can stand in solidarity. Everyone’s Christmas is chaotic.”
So, from clementine chocolate torte to pork and cider stuffing and a Camembert Christmas tree, here is how you can make your dinner sparkle.
