Christmas recipes

There is something very special about cooking at Christmas time. Whether it is because we have guests staying, excited children, in-laws to impress and worry over, or just family traditions that we want to maintain, it's a time to bring out our best Christmas recipes and try new ones and really go to town!

Scroll down to find a growing collection of tried-and-tested Christmas recipes. I try to only add what I've tried myself and know works, or recipes given to me by friends and family. Having said that, recipes don't always translate perfectly between grams and ounces, centigrade and farenheit and American and European ingredients: I know that this site gets visitors from outside the UK so ask that you try to be a little flexible when putting the recipes together!

Traditional Christmas Recipes

Many of our traditional Christmas recipes - Christmas pudding, Christmas cake, mincemeat for the mince pies, sloe gin and so on - need to be prepared well in advance.
