I made Gordon Ramsay's roast potatoes with turmeric and chilli flakes (made half of his and half 'normal' roast spuds), they went down a treat.
2.5kg potatoes sea salt and freshly ground black pepper 1½ tsp ground turmeric pinch of chilli flakes, to taste 4–5 tbsp olive oil (or goose or duck fat)
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Peel the potatoes, quarter lengthways and place in a large saucepan of salted cold water. Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer for about 8 minutes. Drain the potatoes in a colander and sprinkle with the turmeric, chilli flakes and some salt and pepper. Toss in the colander to coat evenly, then drizzle with a little of the olive oil and toss again. Put the rest of the olive oil in a roasting tray and place in the oven for a few minutes to heat up. Carefully add the potatoes and toss to coat in the oil. Roast for 40–45 minutes, turning a few times, until crisp and golden. Drain on kitchen paper and transfer to a warmed dish to serve.

Not Christmas Day but used up left over smoked chicken in a frittata.One large diced Agria potato (oar boiled in salty water first to save time), one onion finely chopped and sauteed in butter, add one cougette, diced half a round of brie, shredded chicken, half a jar of cranberry sauce and three beaten eggs,mix up so the lumps are evenly distributed, cook gently and put under grill to set the top.Great cold.

Uhh - sounds nice - where did you get the chestnut from in December! They usually get harvested in April/May here.

This is an ancient thread bumped at post #32, so the reasons for the disabling could be equally ancient.

The Bread Books dinner rolls, no knead that used a starter, easy to make and so light and yum.
And cous cous salad, first time I've used the stuff, very nice but it goes everywhere!
