Holidays can bring on lots of stress if you want to have company. When I am entertaining, I’ll make one dish that may require a bit of time and fill in with easy add-ins like roasted nuts, marinated olives with lemon zest and pepper and a tray of interesting cheeses. Seriously Simple style.
I like to mix it up by serving something unexpected from traditional holiday fare. Consider inviting friends to drop by for a casual cocktail fete that includes these Indian-style skewers. They are always a hit at cocktail parties. A chilled riesling or gewurztraminer would be a refreshing accompaniment. Of course, you can offer a favorite signature cocktail of your choice….
