It is not too late to make a traditional English trifle:

Rachel's Traditional English Trifle Recipe

If you're hosting a Friends-themed Friendsgiving dinner then it's an absolute must that you make Rachel's Traditional English Trifle for dessert! I mean, "Jam? Good! Custard? Good! Meat? GOOD!"

“First, there’s a layer of lady fingers, then a layer of jam, then custard, which I made from scratch, then raspberries, more ladyfingers, then beef sautéed with peas and onions, more custard, and then bananas, and then I just put some whipped cream on top!”

Barf.

I do hope that trifle is a joke...

 

[Subduction Zone]

Blech!

Barf.

To quote Ross: "It tastes like feet!!"

You had me right up to the beef, peas, and onions! LOL

Change the ladyfingers to yeast rolls, the jam to gravy, and the custard to whipped potatoes and you will have won me back.

Or just leave out the meat and peas and onions! Look, one or the other, but not all combined.

Important, soak the ladyfingers in cognac or liqueur.

Without the meat peas and onion, and use jelly (British jelly (jello), not jam).

I made 80 individual trifles for a dinner our club was hosting for OAPs. One dear old lady was hunting around for whoever didn't eat their trifle, she wound up with 5. Her son gave me a real good ticking off for getting her drunk, the ladies doctor had given instructions she should stay off alcohol.

She left happy.

I see, it is a vegetarian one with just the peas, potatoes, and onions.

EDIT: I guess that Rachel was going to try to add the alcohol after it was assembled. The good news is that it could not make it any worse.

 

[JustGeorge]

Ah, I see.

Never got into that show.

My bad, i edited the post, omit meat, peas and onion.

You can also add mandarin orange segments and / or strawberries

I edited mine as well. For some reason this thread reminded me of that trifle.

It won't hurt you to watch a clip from it though!

In the south here in the states, we do a similar thing:
* one is layers of vanilla wafers, sliced banana, and vanilla pudding/custard
* two is layers of salted pretzels, gelatined strawberries, and whipped cream
And variations on both as per the ingredients and imagination available!

Well, no.

It explains why I missed the reference, though.

Yeppers, I can vouch for that!

Just for information.
Originally mincemeat (Christmas mince pies etc) did contained meat.

Yep and they sucked, which is why we just have mince now. Still sucks but not as bad.
