Re: Are you being Hungarian or British for Xmas?
I got a joint of beef in Lidl for Christmas day. They did not have much selection so I ended up with a piece of neck (one of the tougher cuts) but I braised it in red wine and it turned out both tender and tasty. Even the spuds had more flavour than normal as I had cooked them in the roasting tin with the beef. I usually mash them with sour cream but I had run out of that so I used vajkrem. I will make Cornish pasties with the rest of the beef, once I get to the shops and buy more onions and carrots.

It was nice to have a dozen people to enjoy Christmas, but it is so nice to get rid of them so I can eat what i like when I like.

We had the relatives around - 15 at the table
2 geese, suitably stuffed - carcasses remain for the soup pot
wine flowed like the biblical flood
Christmas pud and mince pies
coffee and beigli (Hungarys antidote to mince pies !)

With not much time since we arrived, we had duck, chicken & beautiful roasties. piles of veg, roast parsnips, cauli etc
All washed down with copious amounts of Hungarian wine.
Bring on New Year.
