Answers:
Something that everyone is certain to like, that cannot go wrong under pressure and will allow you to be a good host i!.e!. spend lots of time with your guests!.
For a starter
Grilled goats cheese on a large crouton with salad and walnuts
or
roasted onion tart that will have to be prepared beforehand
or
fancy spring rolls/parcels with prawns and homemade chili dip!.
For a main course something like a beef casserole such as Beef Bourguiognon

or Beef cooked in stout!.
http://uktv!.co!.uk/food/recipe/aid/512941
It is really tasty and will be ready before the guests arrive!. Serve with mashed potatoes (have them ready and heat in oven), julienne carrots and possible a puff pastry shape to decorate the top!.
Pud has to be chocolate profiteroles or could go for the wow factor with a very 70s choux pastry swan (pipe 'S' shape for head and ovela shape for body which is cut in two) filled with raspberries on a lake of sauce!.
