An Alternative Christmas Dinner Menu

Roast - A lavish, Moghul-Style Spiced Leg of Lamb.

Veg - Fresh flavours help cut through the rich lamb, try: Gujarati Green Beans, Broccoli Upkari or Tangy Greens.

Potatoes - Kashmiri Roast Potatoes are a warming addition.

Gravy - A tangy, Keralan Yoghurt Curry.

Sprouts - Shred the sprouts and use instead of the cabbage in this simple Cabbage with Ajwain Seeds recipe.

Yorkshires - Use your standard Yorkshire pudding batter and add a tsp. of onion seeds for a savoury but fragrant twist.
