We’ve been asking GC members to nominate their favourite Christmas dish ideas. For a tasty side dish we’ve made Gordie’s Sticky Chilli Sprouts, using his new favourite Chilli Death Jam by Trodden Black. No more boring boiled sprouts necessary!

- 300g Sprouts, halved
- 6 cloves garlic
- 1 thumb sized piece of ginger
- 1 bunch scallions- hold back 2 for garnish
