Christmas Dinner

What did you have for Christmas dinner this year?

I had a goose (for the first time) and it was lovely. Much better than turkey.

Care to elaborate on exactly what a "Pinne kjøtt" is? I, for one, have never even heard of it...

Directly translated it would probably be something like "Stick meat"....you take a sheep and cuts off all his ribs, so you get long peaces of meat with a rib in it...then you cook (steam) it on sticks in a big kettle (pan)...

Ah, you're from Norway I see...

I once had a Norweigen festive dish...can't remember what it was called but it was comprised of this:

Slices of different salami's on one plate and a kind of semolina porridge thing sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon in another dish. You ate it with flat bread.

Bit of a dodgy combination if you ask me! :p

Are you sure you wasn't sitting in the kennel when you visited Norway, because that didn't sound like a festive dish...

BTW: We ate turkey at New Years Eave....

It was cooked for us by a Norweigen couple that assured us that it was a traditional Norwegien festive dish...

I've never enjoyed turkey, prolly because whoever cooked it made it too dry. Till this year! We saw a different kind of recipe in a newspaper which made the turkey really juicy and tasty. Cholesterol alert tho'.

Basically chop up a heap of bacon, and mix it with loads of butter. Add fresh herbs and the zest of a lemon. Stick this goo under the skin between the skin and the flesh, and stick the zestless lemon in the cavity. Roast very slow- my wife used (I think) about 150c for about 4 hours.

And a lump of gammon done the normal way with cloves and a glaze.

And a banana and butterscotch trifle. Can't remember the details of the recipe but it meant melting a load of sugar and pouring it over a pile of sliced bananas, then boudior bikkies on top with some brandy and then custard of course and cream on top.
