The
Vegetarian Society has created two brand new menus for this year's
Christmas festivities called Novice and Nouvelle. Each has a starter,
main and dessert. They each use similar ingredients such as leeks,
chestnuts, oranges, raspberries, white marzipan and are packed with
gorgeous flavours.
The Novice meal
is aimed at first time veggies or individuals who don't want to
spend too much time in the kitchen. Start with tangy leek and ginger
soup, followed by festive fillet with orange and pomegranate sauce,
while dessert is in the shape of raspberry frangipane tarts.
For
those who like to be creative in the kitchen there is the Nouvelle menu – created
by the Cordon Vert cookery school. Start with crunchy leek and
chestnut purses with ginger and red pepper relish. The main is
a carrot and cashew flan on a bed of hot puy lentil and dill
salad with an orange and cardamom sauce. Then, if you have room,
round off the meal with a few scoops of raspberry, marzipan and
brandy ice cream served with lemon palmiers.
