Ready, set, go... the countdown to Christmas begins this week with some seriously good food to feed a crowd. Make Kathy Paterson's pan-fried lamb with salad greens and watercress dressing or roasted eye fillet with rocket, shaved parmigiano reggiano or Laurie Black's side of salmon the centrepiece of your festive gatherings or, if it's a big affair make all three.

Need gifts? We are making jars of pickled asparagus and a spicy macadamia and date sambal for people to use as condiments throughout the festive season and a double batch of rocky road will be made next week.
