Also new to the range is the Specially Selected The Ultimate Salmon Wellington (£12.99, 725g). Flaky salmon with a rich champagne sauce is wrapped in golden pastry, creating a perfect indulgent seafood dish.
Vegetarians and vegans can also enjoy the new range with the Specially Selected Sage & Onion Stuffed Tofu Roasting Joint (£4.99, 400g). Made from tofu, this tasty main features a sage and onion centre with a sweet cranberry and herb topping.

Finger foods for festive hosting

Its affordable price point also means it would make a brilliant gift for friends and family.
