Just a few days ago I shared with you my Christmas Canapés! They went down a treat at our first Christmas party, but I’m sure you’ll all agree a few blinis won’t fill anyone up.
As my family has gotten older and all of the children have
become adults in their own rights, the choice of food at our Christmas buffets
has gone from chicken nuggets and slices of pizza, to cheeseboards, blinis and
quiches.
This year we thought we’d reduce the amount of food that
comes out of the freezer even more, and I wanted to cook something that would
look impressive in the centre of the table and would be great for sharing.
After flicking through countless food magazines dedicated to
Christmas party food, I settled on a Spinach and Ricotta pie from the Good Food
Magazine.
I’ve adapted it here and there. Changed the quantities
slightly and changed the method to show what worked well for me. The pie truly
was a show stopper and everyone loved the simple flavours and crisp pastry.
