Christmas dinner preparations

I've prepped individual balloutine of chicken breasts, stuffed with a fig and balsamic chutney, wrapped in pancetta.

Steeped chantennay carrots in fresh orange juice, butter and rosemary, cooked halfway and be roasted down tomorrow.

Roasties par-boiled and coated with semolina flour.

Gravy all done, a full mirepoix with chicken legs and passed through.

Pigs in blankets, I won't have much left to do on the day.

Happy days.
Over 10 years on this forum and the first ever mention of balloutine. Are we getting Haaland?
 
Sweet potatoes for a traditional roaat is a qastw, however they are great a choice or ingredient or casusl snack
I like to peel them(yams too) cut them in chunks along with parsnips and any other root veggies, some sliced red onions, toss it all in Olive oil, salt and pepper bung it in the oven and roast till golden

I’ve tried to like them as snacks, but they don’t do much for me. I disagree that they are a great choice of ingredient.

They're in the section of food that includes courgette and marrow for me. Dull and bland.

Miss Bouchard is in for a treat.

The carrots sound great. I do mine in butter and water with a bit of seasoning and star anise. Cook gently under a cartouche. I think I will try adding rosemary next time.
