Now i know a lot of you will say what, we have none, its to soon, but some of us will already have ideas from a previous experience.

What i think will be good is a collection of recipies beforehand.

So what masterpiece have you made from your xmas leftovers.

Make a turkey curry, mmmmm.

You'll need:

A red/green chill
Ginger
Garlic
A tin of tomatoes
Ground coriander
Turmeric
cumin
garam masala
yoghurt/cocunut milk
One large onion

Finely slice the ginger, garlic, chilli and onion, gently fry for 5 minutes.
Add 1tsp of the powders in following order (1 min apart)
turmeric, cumin, corriander then garam masala then add the tomatoes. Cook for around 5 minutes, then transfer to a blender and blend until smoooooth.

Now, fry thickly sliced onion and any other vegetables you want (pepper or okra is good), add the left over turkey and add the curry paste. Top up with some natural yoghurt/coconut milk and leave on low heat.

Serve with rice or naan.

Jamie oliver made bubble and squeak out of leftovers on tv a few days ago.

From what i remeber he just mashed together leftovers, with at least 50% potatos (thats the important bit), then fried it until cooked. then he made four indentations in it and cracked four eggs into them, oven for 10 mins and its done.

I reckon brussel sprouts are pretty important too, otherwise it's just some kind of potato cake

Sandwiches.

I usually pick the carcass clean before there's time to make a proper meal out of the leftovers. Bubble and squeak sounds like a great idea, or maybe hash.

Yes!

Seriously, If you're having issues with them, boil them as usual, then drain and fry with bacon/pancetta, lots of butter, salt, pepper and chopped chestnuts. YUM!

More details please.

IE hot, cold, boxing day, morning after the hangover, and is it the main meal of your day.

Looks like it should be.
