A traditional British Christmas dinner, also known as Roast Dinner, simply means oven-baking everything. The number one star of the main dish category is the meat grille dish. The choice is numerous, the most common being roast turkey, roast ham and roast lamb, among others.
The universal formula of grilled food is to preheat the oven while seasoning, and the indispensable condiments for grilled meat products are garlic, red wine, thyme and cardamom, which can be adjusted according to personal preferences. After marinating, cook in the oven and plate with your favorite side dishes.
Although the method is simple, different meats have different control over the seasoning method and time and heat. The neck length summed up the small tips when grilling various main dishes for everyone, and said goodbye to the overturning car
1 Roast Turkey

The turkey's breast is more woody, and applying a layer of butter or wrapping it in bacon before grilling it together can make the fat penetrate into the chicken and make the meat more delicious.
Another key to keeping the meat tender and juicy is the roasting time, which can be calculated according to the weight of the turkey. Roasting each kilogram of turkey for 20 minutes and then 90 minutes is the perfect time to roast turkey.
When the last 90 minutes are left, pour out the excess grease from the baking tray, and the turkey will be fat and not greasy, so that you can't stop eating
2 roasted ham Roast Ham

The ham sold in supermarkets is also called Gammon, which is divided into smoked and unsmoked, and can be purchased according to the needs of the recipe.
There are many ways to roast ham, from BBQ Roast with a salty flavor or Ginger Glazed with a hint of spice, to Honey Roast with a sweet flavor and Maple & Mustard Roast with a fruity flavor.
When roasting the ham, rinse the fat part down on the baking sheet and pour off some of the grease in the middle. It can also be grilled with vegetables, and it will be more delicious to absorb ham gravy.
3 Roast Lamb

Roast lamb is generally made of leg of lamb or lamb shoulder, in order to remove the smell can not forget to generously put hundreds of millions of spices, ginger and garlic can not be less. When marinating, it is better to use the tip of a knife to draw a few courses on the lamb.
If you prefer a tender texture, you can bake for a certain period of time and then lower the oven temperature slightly to continue cooking, and the meat inside will have a tender and smooth feeling like a medium-rare steak.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > Christmas side dish SIde Dish</h1>
If the grilled meat of the main course is the core of the communion table, the dish that goes hand in hand with the main course is the icing on the cake. Roast Dinner's side dishes are of course also based on roasting, a variety of grilled vegetables, common ones are roasted brussels sprouts, baked potatoes, roasted carrots, roasted broccoli and cauliflower.

In addition to grilled vegetables, bread, soups and bite-by-bite snacks are all good companions to accompany the main course. There is no specific menu, and each family's Christmas side dish selection is colorful, purely depending on personal preference.
Neck length introduces a few of the most classic, such as pigs in blankets, Yorkshire pudding, various fillings (stuffing) and matching sauces (gravy/cranberry sauce) and so on.
1 Roast Brussel Sprout

Grilled vegetables are actually the largest proportion of food on the British Christmas table, the indispensable is grilled brussels sprouts, chinese food is not very common, looks like a mini version of cabbage, how on the Christmas dinner table?
It's easy! Best served is grilled with Parmesan cheese. Cut the brussels sprouts in half from the middle, wrap evenly in a layer of olive oil, and simply season with salt and pepper. When baked golden brown and caramelized, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and continue baking.
2 cauliflower cheese Cauliflower Cheese
Cauliflower cheese is the shoulder handle of British cuisine in the vegetarian category, and Christmas is also a popular side dish choice for many families. Soft and sticky in taste, melts in the mouth, and is a favorite of the neck length!
The production time is not more than half an hour, and the method is as simple as it is. Here, a white sauce is sautéed, mixed with butter flour and milk in proportion to the top, and then added with the soul seasoning mustard (mustard). Blanch the cauliflower in water and drizzle with the sauce and bake it in the oven.
3 Pig blankets Pigs in blankets

The British are really soul names, and the famous pig blanket is actually a bacon wrapped sausage. Although the name is simple and crude, crispy bacon and juicy sausages can make you addicted to the strong presence of the main dish.
Wrapping sausages in bacon is the main step in making this dish. Wrap it with a little cocktail so your pig blanket doesn't fall apart.
In addition to pig blankets, there is a similar practice in Britain, Devils on horseback, which is actually bacon wrapped in dried fruit.
4 Pudding, Yorkshire pudding

Yorkshire Pudding believes that everyone is no stranger, puff pastry embryos can be bought in the supermarket semi-finished products or frozen, come back as long as it is heated. Hollow inverts can be eaten with any favorite food, commonly drizzled with gravy.
Gravy's method is similar to that of sautéing white sauce, adding flour to the meat oil, then pouring in the broth and mixing it with the sizing.
5 Stuffing

There are many kinds of fillings, including meat filling, vegetable filling and mushroom filling. In addition to being used to stuff turkey, it can also be served separately as a side dish. There are also many ways to plate, you can directly bake the plate on the table, you can also group into a small ball, or take a small baking cup to facilitate the sharing of meals.
The method is actually similar to the dumpling trap, which is to chop the main filling (meat or vegetables) into a puree and then add spices, the difference is to add crushed bread, mix it all well and bake it in the oven.
6 Cranberry Sauce Cranberry Sauce

In order to weaken the greasy feel of other dishes, in addition to the delicious gravy, the British also like to accompany the sweet and sour cranberry sauce at Christmas dinner. That's right, it was served with the main course side dish. I can't help but shout about dark cuisine, but I might as well give it a try. Sauté fresh or frozen cranberries with sugar and water until mushy, or grab a bottle at the supermarket and try something new.

In addition to the main course and side dishes, the atmosphere of the Christmas dinner depends on desserts and drinks. Presumably, when you visit the supermarket, you have seen a variety of cake refreshments in the baking area, boxed Pantettone, Christmas Pudding, Mince Pie and so on. Christmas drinks are relatively casual, and in addition to the cup of mulled wine at the Christmas market, eggnog and hot chocolate are also good choices.
1 Italian fruit bread Panettone
Panettone is a Christmas pastry loved throughout Europe and is a fruit bread from Milan, Italy. Original preserves such as dried raisins and candied fruit are also available in chocolate flavors. The bread is very fluffy after fermentation and can be served with mascarpone cheese or a hot sweet drink.
2 Christmas Pudding Christmas Pudding

Christmas pudding is a traditional British dessert, and you know by name that it was invented by the British specifically to celebrate Christmas. Much like fruit bread on the palate, the most traditional Christmas pudding has a unique aroma derived from mutton oil, mixed with brown syrup, juice and stout or brandy, cooked for a long time.
Look at the ingredients friends should also know that Christmas pudding is actually not in line with the taste of Chinese, if you are curious, buy it bravely!
3 Bagel Pie Mince Pie

Compared to the two desserts, the baguette pie is more suitable for making it yourself. Lazy friends can buy ready-made jams at the supermarket, and only grilled puff pastry can be a very fulfilling replica of this British classic Christmas dessert.
4 Mulled Wine

In previous years, Christmas has brought the most happiness to the neck length is the hot wine in the Christmas market, and this year can not be absent! Making mulled wine at home is even better than buying it.
Buy your favorite red wine at the supermarket and cook it with cinnamon, orange, apple, lemon crumbles and sugar until the aroma penetrates. If you want to be lazy, you can also buy bottled mulled wine at the supermarket, so you can just go home and heat it up. Sweet friends can also use cider instead of red wine, just as delicious!
