</div></a>For an impressive centrepiece, make our <a href="/recipes/brown-sugar-spice-glazed-turkey-candied-carrots">brown sugar & spice-glazed turkey</a>. Full of festive flavours, this turkey is seasoned with star anise, cloves, ginger, nutmeg and black pepper, then basted in a mixture of muscovado sugar, maple syrup, butter and cider vinegar. Season as far ahead as possible to make sure the spices sink deep into the meat, and don’t just flavour the surface.</p>

<p>Make a <a href="/recipes/spiced-squash-feta-beetroot-wellington">veggie wellington</a> with squash, beetroot and feta, all encased in puff pastry, as a showstopping main for Christmas. The colourful layers are made up of spiced squash, beetroot and feta, and includes plenty of festive flavours such as mace, pecans and dried cranberries. After you’ve baked the wellington, you can freeze it, uncovered, on a baking tray until solid, then wrap in cling film, then foil, and freeze for two months.</p>

</div></a>It wouldn’t be Christmas without these <a href="/recipes/classic-pigs-blankets">classic pigs in blankets</a>, and they couldn’t be easier to make. Just wrap smoked streaky bacon around chipolatas and bake until golden. Add a sage leaf and brush with honey before baking for extra flavour, or substitute the sausages with pitted black pudding-filled dates for a twist on the classic.</p>

</div>This <a href="/recipes/wild-mushroom-madeira-gravy">wild mushroom & madeira gravy</a> is an easy, make-ahead sauce. The savoury flavour comes from vegetable stock, <a href="/glossary/miso-glossary">brown miso</a>, balsamic vinegar and dried wild mushrooms. It can be frozen for up to three months or chilled for up to three days, so it only needs to be reheated on the big day.
<p>See our <a href="/recipes/collection/christmas-gravy-recipes">Christmas gravy recipes</a> for more rich sauces.</p>

</div></a>Our five-star <a href="/recipes/make-mature-christmas-cake">make & mature Christmas cake</a> is a true festive classic. Bake in advance and feed regularly with rum, brandy or whisky. Use a mix of raisins, sultanas, currants, cherries, cranberries, prunes or figs. Just remember to stop feeding the cake for the final week before Christmas to give the surface a chance to dry before icing.</p>

Filled with brandy butter and covered in a chocolate truffle coating, it’s full of Christmas flavours.</p>
