I was in Cork visiting my parents last week and my mother bought me some spiced beef in the Market. This is a Cork speciality which is only available at Christmas. I brought it lovingly back to Dublin to cook. The whole house smelt of Christmas spices while it bubbled away reminding me of Christmases past. It tastes fantastic also.
There is only one problem, it sits in your fridge looking like a rhinoceros turd:
Now, I’d like to take this opportunity to wish you all a very happy Christmas.
hehe. My grandfather always used to bring the spiced beef over from Dublin and we’d have it on Christmas eve, which solved the whole rhinoceros turd problem
I wish I had waited until *after* Christmas dinner to read this.
Following a poll at the dinner table, it seems that spiced beef is also a Christmas speciality in Wicklow and Cahirciveen. Happy Christmas to you all.
TM, well yes, practical.
BroLo, tastes delicious, I promise.
Nationwide, who knew. Happy Christmas to you too M.
