C Si Bon Christmas Menu 2022
I LOVE Christmas. Everything about it. The old fashioned carols, over-the-top decorations, abundance of fresh food, parties, family, hot days, cooler nights, the smell of the sea breeze, the popping of champagne corks and the inevitable pondering of the year that has just flown past. C Si Bon has been planning your Christmas Day for months now. I'm really proud of what we are offering to make your day truly special.
Christmas Poultry
Christmas fair at its finest. Released in time for Christmas, this is a standout dish to be served on Christmas Day or in the lead up to Christmas if you are a huge lover of duck, like me. This could take pride of place on your Christmas table and we’ve done all the hard work. Confit of duck is the first thing I buy when in France. I absolutely love it. This is a beautiful rendition of a French classic and tastes heavenly. The sauce was made using freshly squeezed oranges, a touch of cranberry juice and juicy cranberries that have been steeped with thyme and brandy. It looks spectacular too. This will only be available in the lead up to Christmas. You can pick up in store, order online or pre-order for larger parties. So good! Serve with C Si Bon Potato Gratin. You can serve this warm or shredded over a salad. Stunning!
This is a truffley, forest floor incantation with beautiful depth of flavour and conjures images of snow capped mountains in the South of France with crackling wood fires and red wine. A wonderful seasonal dish that will only be available between now and Christmas, so don't miss out!
I've sourced succulent turkey breast from Torre butchers and stuffed it with pistachios, cranberries, sage, thyme, gluten free toasted bread crumbs, celery, onions, lemon zest, olive oil and more goodies. This turkey is tender and delicious. My girls hoovered it down when we tried it (left overs for sandwiches the next day - bonus!). Pre-order online now for home delivery or pick up in-store. This serves 8-10 people easily with sides. All you have to do is bake in oven for 1.5 - 2 hours. I cooked mine on the Webber Kettle and it took 2 hours. I even made a little gravy with the juices from the bottom of the dish. You can serve with C Si Bon Potato Gratin and C Si Bon Sweet Potato Gratin and fresh salad.
Sides & Vegetables
Thinly sliced Royal Blue potatoes, layered with garlic and cream, topped with cheese and baked in the oven until golden brown. This is my ultimate side dish. It’s versatile and tastes delicious when paired with chicken, seafood, beef, lamb, salad, vegetables or just gobbled up by itself. I find the waxy style of Royal Blue Potatoes can hold their flavour well when partnered with fresh, local cream and garlic. Topped with lashings of cheese and baked until golden brown. Try this with my C Si Bon Boeuf Bourguignon, C Si Bon Stuffed Chicken Thighs or C Si Bon Chicken Chasseur and sides of green vegetables or salad. You will love it so much you will be able to serve it to guests the next time they come for lunch or dinner. Nobody needs to know!!
The twin sister to our Potato Gratin! Sweet potatoes are tossed through cream, garlic and a touch of ginger and nutmeg before being topped with cheese and baked until gooey. Yuuuum. Perfect for Thanksgiving and Christmas lunch or dinner.
