Parties with panache
There's enough going on at Christmas without a party sending your stress levels through the roof! So you'll be thrilled to hear that most of these buffet recipes can be made in advance, leaving you free to relax with your guests. Delia's advice is to take advantage of delicious cold terrines and whole hams, then add one or two hot elements, preserves and cheeses.

Always popular for parties, served cold or cooked ahead and warmed through. To cut down on mess, cut into slices before the party starts.
