Recipes and Handy Tips

We are gathering answers to some commonly asked questions, do click on this box to see them – and please ask away …

For a tasty holiday meal:

Take your meat out of the fridge for at least half an hour before putting in the oven
Don’t forget to keep all of your juices from your roasting meats ( maybe not the ham, too salty!) and add to your gravy to give it great flavour
