But your first episode 33 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 2: is about the starters. Tell us about some of the 34 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 2: Christmas starters we can do without having to turn ourselves 35 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 2: inside out. 36 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 3: Well, yes, because I have a theory that you can't 37 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 3: peak too early, So the starters have to be really 38 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 3: dead simple because you've got a lot. It's like a 39 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 3: marathon Christmas, isn't it. You can't go too hard too early, 40 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 3: So you've got to have this stamina to get all 41 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 3: the way to dessert. So I've just done some really 42 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 3: simple then some warm olives, and this are really addictive. 43 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 3: I'm going to tell you it's a dictive because it 44 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 3: really I should come with a warning. These really simple 45 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 3: pickled cherries. So you just get a bag of pitted, 46 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 3: frozen cherries, buy them. Yeah, they're just near the like 47 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 3: frozen berry section and then you simmer them with balsamic 48 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 3: and you just serve them on baquettes with a bit 49 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 3: of soft cheese and somesh. 50 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: It's delicious. A cherry is good. 51 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 3: They pickled cherry with some boss. 52 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 2: It's good like a sour cheir. 53 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, so you've got the sweetness of the cherry. Then 54 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 3: the Bosham people have think you've been cooking for days. 55 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 2: Well, your your speciality or your signing judish for Christmas 56 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 2: is the glazed ham. What's your secret with this? Donnor? 57 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 3: Well, this one came out of an epic fail one 58 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 3: Christmas Day, because do you have a Christmas dress, Amanda 59 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 3: that you put on? 60 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 2: Do you what? 61 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,799 Speaker 3: I didn't? And then someone shamed me about not having 62 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 3: a Christmas dress because you're supposed to look good in 63 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 3: the Christmas photos with your kids and your family. So anyway, 64 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 3: so I got onto this tradition of buying Christmas dress 65 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 3: because you know who wants to look like the worst 66 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 3: person dressed in them? That was usually me. So I 67 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,679 Speaker 3: had my Christmas dress on and I was cheating by 68 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 3: glazing the hand by kind of half opening the oven 69 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 3: and brushing the ham really quickly. But it slipped and 70 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 3: it fell onto my Christmas dress, as did all the 71 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 3: molten glazed ham. So I had a bit of a like, 72 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 3: let's just call that that was a bit of a fail, 73 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 3: that Christmas ham on the floor disaster scraped it off. 74 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 3: No one k new it's on me family. But then 75 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 3: I just thought, right, for next Christmas, I'm going to 76 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 3: seriously get into the test kitchen and see how I 77 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 3: can make this better. Because no one wants to open 78 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 3: the oven twenty times on a hot to rebaste it 79 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 3: to rebaste it. So now I put the hand glaze 80 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 3: quite a bit of it into the bottom of the 81 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 3: baking dish and put fat side down on the ham, 82 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 3: slow cook it for a while, so all the ham 83 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 3: glazers permeating through the hamd meat. Then when you flip it, 84 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 3: you just got to flip. 85 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 2: It once and glaze it once and glazer once. 86 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 3: Put it in and it's sort of self glazes, Like, yeah, 87 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 3: self glazing ham don't ruin your Christmas dress. 88 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: But I thought that you would have had an apron. 89 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 3: You've got a range of not wear an apron. 90 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 2: I never wear an apron. 91 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 3: I feel like missus doubtfire. It ages me forty years. 92 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 3: Just as soon as I put the straps on. 93 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 2: Even if I'm sharing a tracksuit, I can't wear an apron. 94 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 3: I'm with you, a manager. 95 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 1: I love an apron because it puts me in the zone. 96 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: Of course, with the apron, did you guys ever seen 97 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: a movie over the top Sylvester Stallone? I'm sure he's 98 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 1: a professional past me, he's a professional arm wrestler. Anyway, 99 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,679 Speaker 1: When he goes into the arm wrestler ring, he puts 100 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: his baseball cap peak forward. But when he goes into 101 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 1: the arm wrestling ring, he puts an apron because he 102 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: puts the cap around the other way, and that puts 103 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: him into the zone. 104 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 2: See the danger though, If you put an apron on 105 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 2: six hours later, you'll find you're still wearing it. Yeah, 106 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 2: I'd rather just soak my clothes every day to the 107 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 2: leather ste. 108 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, totally. 109 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,679 Speaker 1: Or you could like spicings up and wear the apron 110 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: with nothing on underneath. 111 00:04:59,320 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 3: I see this. 112 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 1: Donahey's Christmas Plaze What Donahey's Christmas streaming now on Disney Plus. 113 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 2: It's Donna Hay Christmas streaming now. 114 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 1: Hey Christmas streaming now on Disney Plus.
