In Venezuela the Christmas dish consists of Hallacas (like tamales but more elaborate); Ensalada de Gallina (with potatoes, carrots and diced apples with mayonnaise); Pernil de Cerdo and Pan de Jamón.
The hallaca is the main part, and as such the tastiest and my favorite, both to eat it and to make it, which is not at all easy since it requires the help of the whole family.
The UK has turkey with all the trimmings. Roast potatoes, stuffing, Yorkshire pudding (oven cooked pancake mix), roast parsnips, carrots, Brussel sprouts, beans, pigs in blankets (sausage wrapped in bacon). Usually served with gravy and cranberry sauce.
My favourite is usually stuffing or pigs in blankets. Turkey is usually just worse chicken and roast potatoes need to be just right.
Beans?! Thats a new one to me!
Like green beans. Not baked.
…oh, thank god! 😅
Sounds like a real banquet!
It’s traditionally a massive meal in the UK. Good could of days worth of calories.
