ok so I seem to have found myself is somewhat of a pickle….I thought it would be a good idea to offer to cook christmas dinner for me and the boyfriend this year as neither of us really have a family we can go to….then we discussed it and thought it would be a nice idea to invite some of our friends who are in the same boat….now it would seem there are 10+ guests coming for christmas dinner…..the idea of this many poeple turning up for christmas dinner when i have never cooked it before is now a little daunting…..does anyone have any tips or ideas for what i should be cooking,,,,,,have to do veggie and meat…..
thanks:laugh_at: :laugh_at: :laugh_at:

October 15, 2007 at 3:30 pm #1122572The only problem i can see you having is cooking space, you should get someone to help you who has an idea what theya re doing as you are going to have to be good with timing everything to make the most of what you will find to be a limited space.
Best of luck to you, why not book a meal somewhere locally? yeah you pay more but it is so much easier and well worth the money.

October 15, 2007 at 3:37 pm #1122582I have a friend who lives in the flat above mine so an extra kitchen will be available….
The idea of us having Christmas at mine was so we could make it like a family christmas as most of the poeple coming cant really have that…i reckon it will all go ok….failing that i reckon we can all survive on christmas pud and alcohol if we have to!!

October 15, 2007 at 3:59 pm #1122566Hehehe – what an ambitious offer that was :group_hug
Vegewise are you looking at vegetarians or the hardcore vegan kind? this will affect what you can cook them so find out what they dont eat as every vegetarian has their own wee foibles… find out and come back to us 😉
How many carnivores are there going to be? hard to help you out with so little info :groucho:
and how big is your oven/s?

October 15, 2007 at 6:23 pm #1122569It might be a good idea to get everyone together one night before hand – all decide what you all would like to eat and each person bring a ‘dish’ so it’s not all left up to you!
