Potatoes
Lovers Potatoes are the best chipping and roasting potatoes on the market at the moment - slightly more expensive, but perfect accompaniment for Christmas menus.
Greens
Sprout tops are a nicer alternative to sprouts – tastier and more attractive on the plate.
Sprouting broccoli – no nonsense, ready in a couple of minutes and looks really colourful
Braised red cabbage – adds colour to the plate and is great this time of year.
Root Veg
Roast and butter whole or halved carrots and parsnips vegetables – they’ll hold better and keep for a couple of hours during service cutting down on prep time.
Turkey
Buy the Turkey leg already boned and rolled, and breast off the bone – gives you more control when cooking.
Stuffing
Buy vacuum packed chestnuts pre-shelled
Try poaching a mix of sausage-meat, sage, onion and chestnuts.
