Taking the mick out of gingers, food help please?

Hi all,

My friend and I are visiting my fiancée and her friends and as part of this they want to take the mickey out of my friend because he is ginger. That and really loud and slabbers at everyone.

Basically everything is going to be orange or ginger themed, and we are doing a meal with a ginger theme, we have so far:

Ginger snaps - biscuits
Ginger cake
Carrot cake
Carrot and coriander soup
Orange flowers for decoration
Orange soda
Ginger ale/beer
Oranges in the fruit bowl

But we are stuck for the main thing, a main course which is orange in colour to top it all off, but with the exception of carrots we have no idea.

Any help would be good, cheers!!

I get the feeling this was much funnier in someones head than it actually is in reality.

It's not my idea, but it is really meant so that he doesn't figure it out for ages, hence the need for basic things to be orange.

Duck a l’orange?

Lots of chinese dishes have ginger in the title

A big fat ginger duck popped into my head too, though it'd be a nightmare to prepare..

Well, he'll be getting an orange jumpsuit from the state after he goes on a kill-crazy rampage due to your bullying!
