I'm kinda interested in what people around the world do for their Christmas day eating ... I figure we've got about three pages before the thread devolves into some political squabble, but let's see how we go.
I have a very small Christmas, due my dysfunctional natal family not really being able to be in the same room at the same time, so it's just me, my ex-husband, our kid, and maybe my BF. I'm planning ...
- a tomato and watermelon (I know, weird, but I like something different) gazpacho, hopefully with some tiny loaves of sourdough bread that a local baker makes;
- chicken roasted with apples and cider, that are then cooked down into gravy, with asparagus, new potato salad, and a green salad;
- a strawberry tiramisu cake thing - it's a Yottam Ottolenghi (sp?) recipe that looks really yum.
- a big jug of sangria.
All after hopefully a good Christmas day swim at the beach ... because we can do that, and I live by the beach now.
