Cook your sprouts in vegetable stock for extra flavour, and dress them in tart mustard and sweet honey.
Honey mustard Brussels Sprouts features such a classic dressing combination - the sweetness matched with the sharp kick of wholegrain mustard. It’s well-known to make anything green taste more impressive - and sprouts are no exception. This recipe proves sprouts are for life, not just for Christmas.
