Quit your day job. Go on. I dare you.

So the plan was that Katy and Fred were going to do Christmas dinner round at their place yesterday. They own the Delice in Les Houches, so the kitchen prepped a bit more of what was on the menu that night for us to have for dinner.

Somehow Katy managed to get home at 9am on Christmas morning, and was hanging all day in the kitchen on one hour’s sleep. So me & Fred (who does front of house, really – not cookin’) took over and knocked out a Christmas dinner for 10 people bish bosh.

It’s easy when the chef’s have already thought the menu through, stuffed the turkey breast and generally prepped everything for you.

We had; turkey breast stuffed with sausage meat with a tomato coolie gravy stylee sauce. 2 kinds of roasted potatoes, roasted vegetables and steamed broccoli.

Fred knows how to bang stuff in the oven and when, so I just went with what he said, and whaddya know – at about 9 in the evening we plated up 10 great looking, great tasting Christmas dinners to 10 hungry, tired people getting quickly tanked up on booze and they loved it!

Difficult not to feel a bit smug, really.
