Given most of us have not been able to travel this year why not transport friends and family to an island paradise by mixing up your traditional Christmas canapés and cocktails with a tropical twist?
We bring the island vibes to you with some Indonesian inspired Christmas entertaining ideas.
Satay is a great option for a canapé – served on a stick, making it easy for your guests
to eat whilst standing and chatting. You can buy satay premade in many good supermarkets – But
these recipes are very simple if you prefer to make yourself. Bonus – satay is often a hit with kids.
The rich flavours and hearty meat sauce of a rendang make it the perfect topping for a
bite size blini. Follow this recipe to create the curry dish then simply add a teaspoon of the Rendang atop a store bought blini. To finish sprinkle fresh red chilli and coriander on the top of each one and you will have a spicy taste explosion to wow your guests.

The vibrant sweetcorn flavour and mild spices of this simple vegetarian dish plus the beautiful yellow colour will go down well at any drinks party. Follow this recipe but make the fritters bitesize.
Spice them up by serving with our fiery sambals.
Platters full of different delicious nibbles – cheese, nuts and honey – always look fabulous and are crowd pleasers at any celebration. Take your cheese plate to a new tropical high with some island inspired homemade jam. Bawah’s pineapple spiced jam is a great addition to any platter and tastes divine with brie on a water cracker.
A fresh and fruity dessert that will have your guests reminiscing about their favourite Asian meal is this mango sushi.
Simply mix some sticky rice (for extra effect try using black sticky rice, or pandan leaf infused sticky rice for a great Christmassy green) with condensed milk and sweetened coconut. You can purchase the rice ready made if easier. Form the rice into a small barrel shape and wrap a thin slice of fresh mango around it. Top with toasted black sesame seeds.
A tropical take on the traditional gluhwein or mulled wine using delicious homegrown flavours of Indonesia like cinnamon, cloves and star anise then stewed in red wine. This recipe is for a jug to share, serve cold or warm and enjoy.
This beautiful red mocktail is about as tropical festive as you can get. Pineapple juice, fresh lime juice and our homegrown rosella infusion make up this refreshing drink.
