These pigs in blankets are a classic staple of Christmas dinner, and the beauty of them is that they are so quick to prepare they can just be left to cook in the oven while you get on with other things.
This recipe is designed for a Christmas gathering so serves 10 to 12 people. If you want to serve them as part of Sunday lunch simply reduce the amount to suit.
These also make a great party food and can be served as Christmas eve or New Year's eve parties. They are also great cold or reheated and if you have any leftovers after Christmas dinner can be eaten as part of a Boxing Day meal.
