The first is a Lent Dinner, it is held on January 6 and should consist of meatless dishes. The second is a Christmas Festive dinner held on January 7, when the meat dishes and alcohol are already allowed on the table. The dinner normally has 12 dishes which represent Jesus's 12 disciples. Both Christmas dinners traditionally include a number of authentic Ukrainian dishes, which have over thousand-year history and date back to pagan times.\n\n- [Kutia](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Kutia \"Kutia\")\n- [Uzvar](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Uzvar \"Uzvar\")[\\[68\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/List_of_Christmas_dishes#cite_note-68)\n- [Varenyky](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Varenyky \"Varenyky\")\n- [Borshch](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Borshch \"Borshch\")\n- [Deruny](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Deruny \"Deruny\")[\\[69\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/List_of_Christmas_dishes#cite_note-69)\n- [Pampushky](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pampushky \"Pampushky\")\n- [Holubtsi](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Holubtsi \"Holubtsi\")\n- [Makivnyk](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Poppy_seed_roll \"Poppy seed roll\")[\\[70\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/List_of_Christmas_dishes#cite_note-70)[\\[71\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/List_of_Christmas_dishes#cite_note-71)\n\n## United Kingdom\n\\[[edit](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/w\/index.php?title=List_of_Christmas_dishes&action=edit&section=68 \"Edit section: United Kingdom\")\\]\n\nMain article: [British cuisine](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/British_cuisine \"British cuisine\")\n\n[![](https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/thumb\/6\/62\/Christmas_pudding.JPG\/250px-Christmas_pudding.JPG)](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/File:Christmas_pudding.JPG)\n\nChristmas pudding\n\nIn the United Kingdom, what is now regarded as the traditional meal consists of roast turkey with [cranberry sauce](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Cranberry_sauce \"Cranberry sauce\"), served with roast potatoes and parsnips and other vegetables, followed by [Christmas pudding](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Christmas_pudding \"Christmas pudding\"), a heavy steamed pudding made with [dried fruit](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Dried_fruit \"Dried fruit\"), suet, and very little flour.
