Neven Maguire: Home Chef

For Neven Maguire’s Home Chef Christmas special this year, Neven serves up some impressive but easy to create festive dishes. For a starter, or to serve at a party, Neven makes a platter with air dried beef, continental-style ham and rocket rolls, pickled beetroot and goats cheese, and spiced beef croquettes. Last year, Neven’s recipe for buttermilk marinated turkey led to buttermilk shortages! This year’s method for cooking a turkey crown with spiced butter is bound to be just as popular. Cider glazed ham is followed by chocolate truffles and a spectacular plum pudding parfait.

After two years of producing brand new recipes for Christmas (turkey crown marinated in buttermilk, and plum pudding parfait, were both very popular), Neven is preparing a thoroughly traditional Christmas this year, but with imaginative ways of cooking the ham, turkey and lamb.

Neven Maguire is back with another delicious Christmas special, and as always a few surprises and twists to the traditional Christmas dinner.
