Mary Berry's Absolute Christmas Favourites

Episode 2

Duration: 30 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Two HDLatest broadcast: on BBC Two Northern Ireland HD

Mary Berry shares some of her favourite recipes for the big day itself with five delicious, indulgent but easy classics for a stress-free Christmas Day and an enviable feast.

To start, Mary gets everyone in the mood with her mulled wine and mini filo beef wellington canapés. Then it's on to Christmas dinner itself, and Mary is roasting a turkey crown and serving it with all the trimmings - fail-safe sage and onion stuffing balls, a simple-yet-delicious cranberry sauce and a recipe for brussels sprouts that everyone will want to eat. And for a final mouthwatering treat, Mary cooks her very special take on the traditional Christmas mince pie. It couldn't be any more simple or delicious.

As well as cooking her Christmas Day favourites, Mary tells stories from her past and visits some specialist artisans getting ready for a busy Christmas. First up, she samples a seasonal tipple at the Wiston Estate winery, before visiting Hampton Court to find out whether her Christmas in any way resembles the Christmas celebrated by the Tudors.
