Don’t waste a bite of your delicious Christmas dinner with these great leftovers recipes, perfect for St. Stephen’s Day.

ALL IN ONE CHRISTMAS DINNER PIE

ST. STEPHEN’S DAY SPICED TURKEY SALAD WITH CLEMENTINE DRESSING

INGREDIENTS 1 clove of Garlic 1 medium Onion 100ml Chicken Stock 1 tbsp Flour 250ml Cream Leftover cooked Turkey, Ham or Veggies Mixed Herbs Mashed Potato

METHOD Sweat off the diced onion and chopped garlic. Stir in the flour and gently cook for 5 minutes. Add the chicken stock and the cream, and simmer for 5 minutes until the mixture thickens. Add the leftover turkey, ham and veggies, along with the mixed herbs, into the mixture. Transfer it all into a casserole dish. Add the mashed potato onto the top of the dish. If you’re using leftover mash, add 50ml of warm milk and a few tablespoons of cream to it. Add some grated cheese over the top of the potato and bake for 30 minutes at 180°C.

INGREDIENTS Shredded cold leftover Turkey

Any crunchy raw veg you have on hand (diced Cucumber, grated Carrot or Parsnip, finely shredded Brussels Sprouts, peeled and thinly sliced Celery, sliced Scallions) 1 tin of Cooked Pulses (Chickpeas are good, or Butter or Black Beans) Large handful of Toasted Nuts (Walnuts, Pine Nuts, flaked Almonds

(leftover or fresh) Grated Cheddar

or salted Peanuts) 1 tbsp Curry Powder Bag of Salad Leaves METHOD

SIMPLE WAYS FOR YOUR TURKEY TO TRIUMPH THIS CHRISTMAS CHRISTMAS CARVING TIPS: After cooking, let the turkey rest for 15-30 minutes before carving. Place a large roasting pan underneath your cutting board to catch the tasty juices, perfect for your gravy. Cut against the grain to ensure tender slices of turkey. TO GARNISH:

Gently heat some olive oil or butter in a pan, add the curry powder and let it sizzle for 30 seconds. Add the turkey and pulses and coat in the spiced butter/oil. Gently fry until the edges just start to crisp up. Assemble the salad leaves, raw veg and nuts in a large bowl, top with the turkey and pulses. Top with dried cranberries or pomegranate seeds. DRESSING Juice and zest of 1 Clementine 1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar (or White Wine Vinegar) 4 tbsp Natural Yogurt Small pieces of grated Ginger Mix the ingredients together and drizzle over the salad.

Use roasted garlic, fresh herbs such as rosemary, sage and thyme or fresh fruit like cranberries and oranges to serve up your showstopper.

JIM O’DWYER Irish Angus Beef Farmer

“It’s a labour of love handed on from generation to generation, as my father did to me. It’s more than just a job, it’s a way of life,” says Jim. “We take great pride in sourcing selected Angus steers to graze on our farm and rear them on our nutrient-rich limestone land. My grandfather purchased the farm in the 1930s and we graze our pastures in the same traditional manner that my family have done now for nearly 100 years. Hopefully 1 of the 4 lads coming along behind me will pick up the mantle when the time comes to do so.”

TRIMMINGS & RECIPES

JAMES & AIDEN Our top Sampling Chefs present some seasonal alternatives.

ROAST BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH PINE NUTS AND BALSAMIC VINEGAR Cut the sprouts in half and thinly slice a red onion. Add to an ovenproof dish with oil, a drizzle of honey and salt and pepper. Roast for 20 minutes at 200°C, stirring often. To serve, sprinkle some toasted pine nuts and drizzle with Specially Selected balsamic vinegar.

CHEESY BRUSSELS SPROUTS AND SPECIALLY SELECTED CHORIZO BAKE

Peel both the sprouts and chorizo. Chop the sprouts in half and the chorizo into chunks. Add to an ovenproof dish with a drizzle of oil and roast for 10 minutes. Add 50ml of cream, chopped rosemary and thyme and layer some Specially Selected Cheddar slices (or any hard cheese you have) on top. Then pop back in the oven for another 10 minutes until nice and golden.

HOMEMADE APPLE TURNOVERS

Peel, core and cut 4 Bramley cooking apples into chunks. Sweat with 5 tbsp of caster sugar and a splash of water. Cook until soft but not a purée and leave to cool. Bring a pack of ready rolled puff pastry to room temperature for 30 minutes and roll it out flat on the baking paper. With the tip of a sharp knife, slice in half horizontally and cut each half into 3 equal pieces to create 6 rectangles of pastry. Spoon the cooled apple mixture into the centre of each piece of pastry and brush the edges with a beaten egg. Fold over from one corner and crimp the edges sealed with a fork. Poke 2 small slits in each pastry triangle with the tip of your knife. Place on a tray and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. Then, remove and brush with the remaining beaten egg and sprinkle some granulated sugar on top. Bake at 180°C for 15 minutes, until risen and golden on top. Leave to cool slightly before eating.

ROAST ROOT VEG WITH APPLE AND ROSEMARY

Pre-heat the oven to 190°C. In a large roasting tray add carrots, parsnips, celeriac or squash cut in to equal size chunks, and roast for 30 minutes. Add 3 tbsp of rapeseed oil, some salt and pepper and 3 crisp eating apples, cut into thick wedges. Then, roughly tear a couple of sprigs of rosemary and add to the veg. Roast for another 15-20 minutes, until the apples are golden.

TOM’S PARTY PICKS “Parties are all about pleasing people and making them feel wanted, so we need to cover all the bases. You will need to allow half a bottle of wine per person to be on the safe side,

J

and if you have some left over, it won’t go to waste!

Red and white are essential, but maybe add in a rosé? And don’t forget non-alcoholic options such as Zerozecco. In whites, you can’t go wrong with Freeman’s Bay Sauvignon Blanc, and Chassaux Et Fils Côtes du Rhône Villages will tick all the boxes for red wine drinkers. Both offer fantastic value for money which is important when you have a crowd in!”
