This is probably my favorite dish, always served at Christmas and of course who else to make it than ones mom, making it with love you know Got the recipe from her to show "rough estimates" because she never follows the recipe just doing it as she goes and it has been a stable since I was a kid.

Flæskesteg is a traditional Danish roast pork dish, often served with crispy pork cracklings (flæskesvær), caramelized potatoes, brown gravy, and sometimes medister sausage. It's a hearty and flavorful meal, often enjoyed during Christmas or special occasions. Here's a recipe to make it:

Danish Flæskesteg with Sides
Ingredients:

• 2 kg pork roast (with skin)
• Salt, pepper
• 1 kg small potatoes (peeled and boiled)
• 100 g sugar
• 50 g butter
• Drippings from roast (for gravy)
• 2 cups stock, 2 tbsp flour

Instructions:

1. Roast Pork:
   Score pork skin, rub with salt, and roast at 200°C (390°F) for 1.5–2 hours until the skin is crispy.
2. Caramelized Potatoes:
   Melt sugar until golden, add butter, then coat boiled potatoes in caramel.
3. Gravy:
   Whisk flour into pork drippings, add stock, and simmer until thickened.
4. Serve:
   Slice pork, and plate with crispy crackling, caramelized potatoes, and gravy.

Not exactly what I'd make for Christmas but here's mine

Step 1: Go to a nearby grocery store.

Step 2: Haul your feet over to the blue dragon department and pick out some quality Ramen or Egg Noodles.

Step 3: While you're at it, pick up some packs of Chop Suey or Teriyaki sauce.

Step 4: Head over to the cold storage department and find some vacuum sealed steak bags of pork that you can easily prep in the oven with the bag still sealed. I would personally go for some slow cooked pork knuckles/leg, or something like it (not pulled pork lel).

Step 5: Move your ass over to the freezer department and pick out some bag of vegetables wok mix, something with mini corns in it.

Step 6: Order a taxi and get home as fast as possible.

Step 7: Put on the Naruto chef-hat and start cooking gold. Let yourself cook, you got this.

Step 8: Once the ramen is ready, the wok vegetables and the pork holiness, mix it all in the frying pan (throw away the bone obviously after stripping it of meat lel), but here is the catch. If the bag of pork yummy-yummy has a lot of sweet baby mama juicy in it, use it as gravy. If not, then use the bags of Wok sauce you got. Don't need both really.

Step 9: In a bowl it goes, it is time..

Step 10: Itadakimasu, Naruto-style.
