Great British Food Magazine Dec-18 Back Issue

Do you enjoy nothing more than spending December planning, prepping and cooking in anticipation for a spectacular Christmas feast with friends and family? Well you've come to the right place! If, on the other hand, you're keen to keep excitement high but kitchen-related stress to an absolute minimum, you're also in the right place.

We believe that balance is the key to a happy (and hassle free) Christmas. Mix up show-stopping bakes and puddings that take a bit of time with easy party food and simple sharing platters that can be thrown together at the last minute. At GBF we're focusing on the sides for a festive feast. Pairing fairly classic roasts with exciting, flavour-packed veggies and sauces is a great way of adding something extra special to your menu while keeping everyone happy. Why not try out the recipes for roasted carrots and kale with a sausage crumb, masala gravy and sticky plum-roasted cabbage?

Also inside: The Hairy Bikers' magical festive bakes, Mary Berry's homemade treats, cheeseboard delights, moreish party canapes, inspiration for your Christmas leftovers and foodie giveaways!
