It was beautiful but my bank balance doesn't agree

Homemade First time doing sousvide veg you must try!

Rate whilst I scoff....

My last 2 years of Christmas dinners / roasts always with all the trimmings, we struggle with big portions in this household, sometimes hard to see what's all giing on under there 😅

The cauliflower cheese is so yellow due to Red Leicester in the Roux!

It’s probably both our favourite roasts. Honey roast carrots, mushy peas (is that unusual?), roast potatoes (from scratch), some pre-made Yorkshires, and roast piggy with crackling. Crackling was utterly perfect, nice and fatty and chewy underneath, and nice and crispy on top (but not too crispy not too chewy for either). The crackling alone is a miracle because we have the world’s worst oven. Potatoes were perfect, gravy was perfect. Just what was needed.
