Menu for bonfire night?

Try Delia's Spansih chicken dish

Brown rice, chicken pieces, orange, stock, olives etc, all in one casserole. Great thing is that it can be prepared and left to cook and then is very tolerant of late serving - like sits happily in the oven for an extra hour. With a green salad, you are done.

How about a big bowl of chilli in the slow cooker or on the stove top and jacket potatoes in the oven.

Or a massive sausage and bean casserole with dumplings:D

do baked potatos, then cut into quarters and cover with grated cheese and grill for a few more minutes, best, easiest, cheapest bonfire grub ever (buy cheese on special offer, there's always a half price cheddar!
dont bother with plates, just have plenty of paper napkins, so no washing up either

Hi there :beer: I've added the two threads started this year to the existing thread on Bonfire Night suppers, to keep ideas together.

We did butchers' sausages, HM rolls, and HM baked beans :j

Just curious.....

I generally make a corned beef hotpot:

Slices of onion & potato layered with slices of corned beef & ground black pepper, pour over hot beef Oxo stock just to the top & bake on a low heat for a couple of hours......serve with red cabbage & pickled onions - scrummy!

What does everyone else make for warming the family up after their fireworks?

Hi floss,

Bonfire night isn't celebrated here so we don't do anything, but there are lots ideas on this thread:

Hi,

I'm having a small Bonfire night party for about 10 people. We're going to an organised bonfire and display first, which starts about 7, and then coming back for something to eat and more fireworks.

My plan so far is to make a carrot and lentil soup and take it in a flask to the event to dole out in foam cups. If I have time I'll make some toffee (not treacle toffee, I'm not a fan)

Then I'm torn for a main course, either my Tuscan Bean Stew or a chilli con carne. Either way I'll make it in advance and let it keep warm in the slowcooker while we're out.

I was thinking parkin or apple crumble for pud. All washed down with mulled wine.
