00:00 I'm vegetarian so I'm a little bit out there but me and my Nana make a veteran's spinach wellington
00:08 which makes an amazing gravy and she makes a fantastic gravy which is fantastic
00:12 so that's the delicious one. I think it's the epic gravy for me.
00:16 Do you have the rest of the trimmings and everything, the usual Yorkshire pudding?
00:19 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, anything but just not that.
00:22 Okay.
00:23 I would say a classic would be Yorkshire pudding, some pigs in blankets.
00:26 They just taste the best.
00:28 Yeah, yeah, to be fair. And is it classic turkey for you?
00:31 No, I prefer chicken. I don't like turkey. It's dry.
00:34 I've only had chicken.
00:35 Yeah.
00:36 Okay. And yourself?
00:37 I mean my whole family's vegetarian as well but like the vegan pigs in blankets, if we can get them and the Yorkshire pudding, it's also stuffing.
00:44 You can't have a restaurant without stuffing.
00:46 Any preferences on the stuffing? There's like those apple, those like sweet ones or are you...
00:50 Literally anything, I'm not fussy.
00:52 Perfect.
00:53 You've got to have good roasties, so you need to boil them first, shake them about, get them all ruffled up.
00:58 I like to put a bit of parmesan and herbs on mine and garlic and they get really nice and crispy.
01:02 Good sprouts, pigs in blankets, Jo's not saying.
01:06 And I don't agree with anyone who doesn't have Yorkshire pudding on their Christmas dinner.
01:10 It's Yorkshire pudding.
01:11 Important, important.
01:12 And how about gravy? We've had some...
01:14 Oh, we need to have loads of gravy but you need to have the gravy from the meat juices.
01:18 No granule gravy, from the beef, all soaked up with the mashed up veg and then sit it, get it all nice.
01:25 Amazing, do it with a plate.
01:27 And how about, is it classic turkey for you?
01:29 We go turkey, gammon and beef just because we like to go extra and have a bit of something for everyone.
01:36 Amazing, good for you, okay.
