Christmas eats make Christmas treats

Christmas eats make Christmas treats!!!!!

With Christmas fast approaching, I have a few tempting dishes for you to enjoy….

Let’s get the meal going with some spiced nuts and drinks from A Plate in the Sun.

If you’re having roast pork, I’ve got just the sides for you! Plantain carrot and apple mash or Crispy stuffing balls.

The mash brings just the right amount of sweetness to pork dishes and could be the new regular addition to your table. Any leftovers could be enjoyed with sausages, your Boxing Day ‘Bangers and Mash’ brunch dish!

Enjoy the crispy plantain stuffing balls as an alternative to the traditional sage and onion.

To bring the wow factor to your Christmas menu, why not try my plantain stuffed dates, as an extra little treat before dessert. You won’t believe just how easy they are, even the men in my house can make them!

My Christmas dessert is going to be easy plantain pudding, a lighter and fruity alternative to traditional puds. I make it with fruits like guava, raspberry and pears and without butter, eggs or added sugar! Sceptical? Why not try it? As the saying goes…the proof of the pudding is in the eating!!!!
My book, ‘A Date with Plantain: 51 easy to cook fusion recipes’, packed with delicious treats, could be the perfect gift. And guess what, plantain is gluten-free!
