Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving?

You might want to throw in a turkey side dish for the sake of variety. Not a whole turkey like what's served here for Thanksgiving, but perhaps just a turkey breast. Very Happy

dun care lah, just serve fried rice Twisted Evil Laughing

dumbdumb! SG

turkey is over-rated. its so dry, dunno why ppl like it.

If your ancestors crossed the Atlantic with Columbus to America, turkey would be fine.

Never mind the guest,
If you are Chinese, its Chinese food
If you are Japanese, Japanese food them.
If you are South Indian, then Indian food.
You get the idea?
Who are you?

As host, enquire what meats are taboo to whom. Thats more important.

dumbdumb! SG

yeah, watch out for ham, pork chops and stuff

turkey this and turkey that.

take a whole week or more to finish the dang bird. sometimes, gotta freeze up the food too. Laughing Mr. Green

I know you said you’re going to serve Hainanese Chicken rice. Before you said that I was thinking, how about a roast chicken? The rotisserie kind you find at supermarkets? For sides, a little bit of east and west. How about some mac and cheese, a salad, green bean casserole, garlic mash potatoes with gravy on the side, pumpkin soup (?), etc. HTHs.

jetta SG

That's what always happens with us too. But for the past few years, we've gone with chicken. The only turkey on the table is just a small piece of breast meat. Laughing

Arapahoe SG

thanks giving already!!!

Turkey is good so long as you cover your turkey with aluminium foild when you bake. Only take out the foild 30 minutes before you take out. This is just to get the browning so that your turkey will look brown from the outside and juicy from the inside.

Get a Goose for a change.

What u need to do with left over turkey including the bones is to make turkey soup.

4 main vegetable and salt n pepper. -- Carrot, Brocoli, onion, celery. It should wipe out your turkey in 3 days.
