I agree on the no Yorkshire's on Xmas dinner.

I've never understood this or been given a valid reason for leaving them off, it seems barmy to me. Each to their own and all that but why wouldn't anyone have them on there if they eat them on normal Sunday roasts?

As someone whose Sunday dinners as a kid consisted of mashed potato and 12 Yorkshire's you'd be kicked straight out of my house for saying no Yorkshire's on a Christmas dinner. The only thing better than Yorkshire puddings is Yorkshire puddings with onion thrown in the mix. Trust me you'll thank me for it later.

Non-negotiables for an English Christmas dinner are: Turkey with stuffing (sage and onion preferably), gravy, cranberry sauce, roasties, Brussels sprouts and at least 1 other type of roast vegetable (carrots, parsnips etc.)

 

Once you have that core, you can add whatever sides and additional meats and it’s still a Christmas dinner imo.

Christmas dinner should be 2 potatoes - Mash and Roasties and a honey roasted parsnip and carrot medley.

Low-pleasure? You’ve obviously never had a really good buttery mash.

 

I’ll put you on to some life-changing mashed potato; use a potato ricer, infuse some cream with rosemary, garlic and thyme and add that to your potatoes with an ungodly amount of butter, then add salt and white pepper. Heavenly stuff.

I know Castore get stick, but Puma where so much worse them them. Atleast from a design perspective. The kits always looked really cheap too.
