We SHISH you a Merry Christmas! Mother, 35, plans to serve Xmas dinner on 10in kebab skewers for her family after it went down a treat… for but would YOU serve this to your kids?

A mother has torn up the rules on how to plate up a traditional Christmas dinner by serving the festive meal on 10inch long kebab skewers. 

Katie Fox, 35, took to social media to show off her invention, explaining how all of the meal’s trimmings – pigs in blankets, roast potatoes, carrots, sprouts, stuffing balls and Yorkshire Puddings – were speared onto the sticks.

The only item she decided to leave off the prongs she served to her partner Tony Rewcastle, 37, 14-year-old niece and friend, was the turkey.

Katie, from Barnsley, South Yorkshire, said she was ‘surprised at how cheap it was’ explaining that the meal ‘cost less than £7 for four people. We all had two skewers each and we were full’. 

‘It’s weird but it really went well and I’m planning to do it again over Christmas,’ she told the Sun.

‘I wanted to have a Christmassy night after it snowed. I don’t really know where the idea came from – it just happened,’ she added.

Not everyone seems to be convinced by Katie’s festive invention, however, with one reportedly claiming it was a ‘pointless exercise’.

Another said ‘just stick it on the bloody plate’ while a third added ‘trying to make Christmas dinner like street food … STOP IT’. 

Last week it was revealed that the majority of Brits would prefer to have a takeaway than a traditional Christmas meal.

A staggering 59 per cent of the nation say they would prefer to order a takeaway than cook up a roast dinner with all the trimmings on Christmas day.

Of those, one in five would opt for a Chinese, closely followed by Indian or fish and chips, while one in ten say they would choose a pizza or fried chicken.

Also among the top cuisines festive-goers prefer over a roast are burgers, kebabs, Thai food and sushi.

But four in ten are still passionate about having a traditional Christmas lunch on the big day, with roast potatoes voted the nation’s favourite component of the festive meal.

Turkey came in as the second must-have festive dinner item at 50 per cent – beating chicken (12 per cent), beef (12 per cent) and gammon (seven per cent) to the top spot by a wide margin.
