All I can say is there is bacon wrapped turkey, beef, roasties which are coated in semolina for a crispy texture...(you can have that tip for free), sprouts fried off with bacon, dauphinoise potatoes, parsnips roasted with parmesan and other veg. I have also brought 2 bottles of broadside into this otherwise tea total house.

After seeing all those piled plates I had a moment of doubt and checked that I hadn't slept through until Christmas Day.

That banana in the recipe is a new one on me. Sounds good.

It actually worked very well, if a little on the sweet side. I grabbed what was to hand & couldn't be bothered with spuds. The banana was quite green.

I got a tagine for christmas last year, not used it yet though...Not really sure what to do with it.

It's effectively a slow way of cooking. I use mine over low gas with a diffuser. Generally I cut the meat into strips, as with potato and carrots and make a conical pile. There should be sufficient water to go half way up the base, salt and maybe pepper/spices. I've used fresh ginger as well.
