Christmas
I have had so many requests for Christmas recipes that I thought I would post the whole lot in one entry. Some of my best memories are around the table at Christmas time with the table groaning under all the delicious things to eat. It is so worth taking the time and putting in the extra effort to make Christmas dinner or lunch something really extraordinary, it is something that you and all your friends and family will remember for years to come. I have also added a few recipes that are fantastic to make as Christmas gifts like shortbread or cookie hampers, a little effort in the kitchen making Christmas presents is always appreciated and of course a lot less expensive.
Christmas cake recipe
This recipe makes a large cake that will see you through Christmas.
Glazed gammon recipe
For me, this is the best meal of Christmas with loaded sarmies the next day.

It’s rich and very good

hay there, i would like to know since its my 1st xmas making gammon..i bought a glazed gammon by accident. can i still cook the gammon and put over my own glaze?or how can i go about preparing the glazed gammon i already bought? but i’d prefer to use my own glaze..if possible
Hey Brigitte, You can prepare your own glaze, this will only enhance the flavours but as its pre made I would follow the cooking instructions given. Just a hint, marmalade makes a great glaze… Merry Christmas.
[...] sweet potato soup is just what you need. Your friends and family all feel the same but of course Christmas is a time to feast so get out the leftovers and make this ultra simple and so tasty soup to have [...]

Oh I absolutely love shortbread! I haven’t settled on a recipe yet for it so I’ll definitely try this recommendation. This is my tasty recipe for the best Pumpkin Spice Bread.
Enjoy it and that pumpkin bread recipe sounds amazing. Cheers G
