Cold spread

Keeping the mood light and lush, our Boxing Day menu has an appealing global note and brims with tempting South East Asian flavours.

If you’d rather chill out in front of the telly, cosy-up with a glass of claret and enjoy Rick Stein's tasty terrine with a stack of rustic bread slices…

Relaxing after the big day…

Any extra turkey from the big roast makes a great addition to cavernous bowls of steamy soup. Brimming with goodness our fabulous soup recipe is just about a meal in itself. If you’re still in the party mode, indulge in a seriously dressy, yet simple-to-make, herby salmon fillet by Rick Stein. And don’t forget pud – this one’s crammed with winter fruit, and deliciously warming too.

Spicing it right

Boxing Day is traditionally a time for curry, rice and all things with spice. If you’re going all-out for an Indian this year, make your feast fit for a Maharajah with authentic and delicious recipes from Madhur Jaffrey. We also love Ainsley’s fruity mango kulfi, which you can make ages before the day.

Veggie buffet

Get creative with our bespoke buffet spread – it’s so good that it’ll tempt fans of meaty feasts into going coming back for second helpings. For a fitting finale to a sumptuous meal, sink your dessert spoon into mallowy pavlova filled with mountains of cream…
