    “I’m always trying to think of new ways to serve vegetable accompaniments with a big roast that are easy to prepare and don’t create lots of washing up. This recipe fits the bill perfectly as you have three tasty veggies all cooked together in one (easy to wash up) pan. The additional flavours of sage and orange make this an ideal dish to serve with your Christmas dinner. You could add some finely sliced cooked chestnuts to the sauté towards the end of the cooking time for an even bigger festive flavour”. Jo Pratt

    In my view, Christmas isn’t Christmas without this delicious gluten free stuffing. The recipe is for a 5.53kg /12lb oven ready turkey and can be made a day in advance.

    Bread sauce provides an aromatic and creamy accompaniment to the Traditional Christmas roast and is easily adapted for gluten and lactose free diets, by using Genius bread and Lactofree milk.
