Question? Are we having a separate thread for posting photos of Christmas meals, or continuing it all in here? Morning Glory
what’s ‘pickled pork’?
Its too complicated for me to try to move things due to time zones so stick with this thread I think.

Last night's dinner. It was the most tender octopus I've ever had. Also had Mexican rice and refried beans. The tapered cone shape is mexican street corn BTW. Only made it through the 1 tentacle so the big one is leftover. I'm thinking octopus nachos with a green sauce maybe.

Interesting. Did you buy smoked duck 'ready made'?
I'm rather shocked that you are eating Christmas pudding a day early! I note with approval that there are copious amounts of custard.

The duck came from The Cheshire Smokehouse and is our traditional Christmas Eve meal. We had the pudding today because we find it a bit much after the main Christmas day meal, but after a light salad we had room for gallons of custard (both pud and custard from Aldi, can't be beaten). Tomorrow we will finish with a little Eton Mess.

After being up most of last night due to power outages, I slept quite long today and just got up, not wanting to work at cooking anything. So, I microwaved some hot pockets for today's meal.
