Christmas dinner/lunch?

[RustyPrincess]

What are you making this year for Christmas? Do you have dinner on Christmas eve? Or lunch or dinner the next day?

We are having a braai with family on Christmas Day for lunch, everyone brings a dish and we all eat until we roll out the door.

Finger snacks and presents on xmas eve. Xmas day this year is a braai.

We have really cut down on the quantity of food. No more cooking for an army.

Traditional Danish dinner on Christmas Eve. Roast duck, pork, red cabbage, caramelised potatoes, sauce and then risalamande for dessert. Leftovers plus gammon for lunch Christmas day. Can't wait

That sounds fascinating. Especially the caramelised potatoes. I think I need to try other people's traditions next year

Oh, the caramelised potatoes are the best. Here is a recipe for them if you want to give it a bash http://scandinavianfood.about.com/od/potatodishes/r/sugarpotatoes.htm

Christmas eve and I'm in charge of the meats… turkey (cooked on a rotisserie in the weber), leg of lamb, and roasted rolled pork neck.

Probably bake some pretzels to soak up the beer while I'm watching the bird go round and round.
