The Christmas period is a time for big-occasion meals, whether it’s the formal Christmas dinner, a barbecue or a ‘bring-a-salad’ affair. This poultry feast hopefully offers something for each; some with a little work to do, while others are more about doing-ahead prep and finishing at the last moment. If you don’t have a meat thermometer, do consider getting one as they take out all the guesswork as to whether the meat is cooked or not, especially when cooking a large bird or the terrine.
