Foreword

Is there anything more mouthwatering than a crispy, slow-cooked pork knuckle, crispy roast potatoes, and Christmas salads with plenty of flavor, salt, and sweetness? Perhaps it could be the GRAVY, which is poured over the tender pork in generous amounts, and every bite you take is simultaneously accompanied by a piece of the crispy crackling.

"The meat was so tender that we could nearly eat it with a spoon, and the crispy crackling was pure magic! A Christmas menu that surprised and impressed everyone." Lars, company Christmas lunch

"The pork knuckle was a revelation! Juicy, flavorful, and perfect accompaniments. The guests are still talking about the roast potatoes with sage and mandarin, for which I thankfully got the recipe." Anne, family Christmas lunch

"We have never experienced a Christmas menu with so many small details. Freshness, sweetness, salt, and crispiness in perfect balance. It was a journey of flavors." Pernille & Henrik, friends' Christmas dinner

I probably don’t need to say more to get you to choose this menu for your next Christmas event if you want to surprise your guests with a slightly more unconventional yet exclusive Christmas menu. But here comes a bit longer menu description:

Pork knuckle (or hock) is perhaps one of the most overlooked servings during Christmas. It can be cooked for hours and only gets better the longer it simmers. The meat is more tender than you can imagine, due to the fat it contains. Additionally, extremely crispy crackling can be made, which forms the traditional harlequin pattern.

The entire menu is served as share food on the table, where one can take what they desire.

With this pork knuckle, we serve:
- Sauce from the drippings of the pork knuckle
- English roast potatoes, which are crispy potatoes cooked in duck fat and olive oil with sage, garlic, and grated mandarin peel.
- Glazed whole onions that are both sweet and have a tangy bite.
- Broccoli in a blanket (pigs in a blanket’s fresher sister): bacon-wrapped broccolini with roasted pine nuts
- Brussels sprouts salad with pumpkin, crispy pancetta, feta, cranberries, and sage
- Orange salad with nuts, pomegranate, burrata, green salad, and rosemary.

You can also add (or replace the pork knuckle with) pink duck breast, which is prepared as a roast on the carcass for an additional cost.

For dessert, a triple chocolate mousse is served, consisting of white, light, and dark chocolate mousse with fresh mandarins and raspberries - along with sour/sweet amarena cherries.

Alternatively, sweet rum flambéed pears, with crispy almond flakes, salted caramel sauce, and 38% crème fraîche.

If you want an appetizer before the main course, I would suggest some light and fresh snacks/bites, such as:
- Smoked salmon on cucumber slices with dill cream
- Beetroot ceviche with smoked cheese cream and walnuts.

We had specifically requested Daniel again. He is skilled at sensing the mood among the guests and participating to the extent that is appropriate and necessary. He excels in every area, so we are very satisfied.

Ofte stillede spørgsmål

Har du andre spørgsmål? Læs mere under Hjælp
Hvad hvis jeg ikke har planlagt eventet endnu?
Vi anbefaler at sende en anmodning, så du kan sikre dig, at kokken er tilgængelig på den valgte dato.
Efter bekræftelse vil du stadig kunne:
Ændre i menuen og antal serveringer
Ændre i antallet af gæster, allergier og børnemenuer
Skrive til kokken for at tale om menuen og middagen
Hvornår skal jeg senest booke en kok?
Vi anbefaler, at du tidligst muligt reserverer din dato ved at sende en anmodning til kokken, især for weekender og i perioder med højtider eller fejringer.
Skal du bruge en kok med kort varsel, eller er kokken ikke ledig på din valgte dato, så fortvivl ikke! Vores kundeservice sidder klar til at assistere med at finde en kok. Ring til os på 93 40 40 10 eller skriv til os på kontakt@chefme.dk
Hvad sker der, når jeg sender en anmodning til kokken?
Når du sender en anmodning til en kok, opretter du samtidig en profil, så du vil blive adviseret, når kokken har sendt et svar på anmodningen. Du vil få adgang til en beskedtråd, hvor du til hver en tid kan skrive til kokken og aftale nærmere.
Kan jeg ændre på kokkens menu?
Du kan vælge at tage udgangspunkt i en af kokkenes menuer eller få skræddersyet en menu lige til dine smagsløg.
Er du mere til fisk end kød? Eller foretrækker du kage frem for is til dessert? Send en anmodning til kokken og del dine ønsker, så I kan sammensætte en menu, der passer til dig og dit selskab. Kokken har derudover også mulighed for at lave alternative menuer baseret på allergier samt børnemenuer.
Medbringer kokken alt, hvad der skal bruges?
Du vil kunne se længere oppe på siden, hvad kokken har af krav til dit køkken, samt hvad kokken har mulighed for at medbringe. Er du i tvivl, kan du spørge kokken, når du har sendt en anmodning.
Hvad skal jeg selv stå for, når jeg booker en kok?
Kokken står får både indkøb, madlavning, servering og oprydning i køkkenet. Derfor skal du blot stå for at dække bord, drikkevarer (medmindre du har tilkøb vinmenu eller lign.) og nyde tiden med dine gæster om bordet.
