One of my favourite things to do on christmas eve is cook lots of yummy picky bits, here’s a few things I’ll be making this year, not difficult but should be very tasty :)

Chicken Satay

100ml Soy
4tbsp Peanut butter
Chicken fillets

1. Heat soy and peanut butter in a pot, once it’s melded together leave to cool completely.

2. Pour marinade over chicken and leave for up to 24 hours.

3. Bake chicken for 15-20mins or until cooked.

4. Thread onto skewers and serve.

Coronation Chicken Vol au Vents

Mayonnaise
Curry Paste
Grapes
Chicken
Mango Chutney
Vol au vent cases
Lettuce

1. Bake vol au vent cases as per recipe and leave to cool.

2. Mix mayonnaise with tbsp of curry paste. Add spoonful of chutney and quartered grapes.

3. Line cases with lettuce and add a spooful of coronation chicken to each and serve.

Goats Cheese & Red onion Vol au Vents

Goats Cheese (welsh)
Red onion
Olive oil
Vol au Vent cases

1. Bake vol au vent cases and leave to cool.

2. Gently fry onion with a little olive oil until soft.

3. Add a small amount of onion to each case and crumble over a little goats cheese. Grill for a couple of minutes and serve.

Dipped Strawberries and Marshmallows

Hardly a recipe required as it’s so straight forward, I use milk chocolate for the marshmallows and Green & Black’s white chocolate for the strawberries.

    Hmm, goats cheese and red onion tartlets. I’ve told the childrne they probably won’t like these because, well because I want them all to myself is why x

    They are so moorish, sometimes I make a massive one with a huge square of puff pastry. Obviously gobble the lot myself :)
