my nan is making me the nut roast its my yearly treat she only makes it for christmas because she says that that way i am getting something speacial on christmas day! bless her it is so true though as every year I look forward to it! she also refuses to give me the recipe so i dont make it myself! she has made a cook book of all her recipes over the years which she said one day she will hand down to me!

you can also do 6 bird and 10 bird roasts - bit much for me tho as there will only be me eating it

yup its a bird inside a bird inside a bird - was going to do partridge inside a pheasant inside a duck. you bone the birds out and then reassemble them - by putting the duck on the outside it should all stay moist. very tasty and if you get a good wild duck it shouldnt be carrying too much fat at the moment. serve with a juniper and lemon sauce (pretty tart , not too sweet) or a plum sauce with veg and game chips - drooling as I type this!

Sal, what do you mean by a 3 bird roast? does that mean 3 different meats?

I am having pheasant on new years day. was given a brace last week or was it the week before - sitting in the freezer at the moment - dressed them as soon as I got them, I really dont like meat that has been hung

was thinking of doing a 3 bird roast - but then this piece of pork came my way so pork it is on xmas day

I am having Turkey.... althought the rest of the family are having Steak pie or honey roast ham!!!, I am the only one who likes it and you cant beat a bit of cranberry sauce with it....yummy

I am 100% with ST on this one!! Cannot imagine christmas without turkey, though I guess its what you are used to!! I know of a vet who is having turkey, lamb & pheasant!!

My dad doesnt eat turkey though - he has to have beef or steak or similar - but he always was the fussy one in the family!!! Mum used to say that when we were too young to know any different - if dad said he didnt like/want something, then we automatically said the same, even though we didnt know exactly what he was talking about lol!!! Dad is still stuck in that rut!! The most non-adventurous person I have ever met!!!!
