hmmm so we are going to friends on sat for "xmas dinner" and secret santa and a night of drunkeness. Everyone is taking a dish - they already have ham and potatoes.............what can i take??? Was trying to think of something english but i am at a complete block!!!!!!

Help?!

Sprouts (and bacon and sour cream)

Cauliflower cheese.

Haggis.

All of the above.
I like Broccoli and cheese sauce.

Chicken Tikka Masala

owwww mouth watering now!

Isn't your husband taking an English dish?

That's the wrong part of Englandshire

Just take a plate of Cadbury's Fingers with you....

We are off to a 'pot luck' brunch on Sunday - I am taking mini toad in the hole (that's fairly English) and Smoked Haddock Pate (cos I am Scottish).

Sag aloo.

I once went to a Super Bowl party and forgot the side dish. So at the last moment I stopped in a McDonalds and ordered 'ten super sized French Fries' please. They had to cook them fresh for me (a plus) and gave me two huge bags filled with golden deliciousness.

I arrived at the party, made a beeline to the kitchen and said 'give me the biggest bowl you've got' dumping in all the fries.

They were gone in minutes.

Findus crispy pancakes, or fish fingers if the parties on a Friday.

If you want to trawl through some recipes for inspiration try

and look up Nigella Lawson....either that or take a couple of wedges of English chesse and some crackers!

Parsley sauce. Acorn/butternut/spaghetti squash. Yams. Homemade apple sauce.
