GETTING your family to eat Brussel sprouts on Christmas Day can be a challenge.
But a recipe from Jamie Oliver should make the little green vegetables go down a treat thanks to a secret £1 ingredient.
The celebrity chef urges households to celebrate the humble sprout with this “insanely delicious recipe” that takes just30 minutes to make.
Most people turn their nose up at sprouts – but let's be honest, boiling them in water isn't going to make them taste very good.
But his 'best-ever' sprout recipe promises to make them taste so much better.
The recipe can be made on the day or made in advance and crisped up in the oven when ready to serve.

To start, trim the Brussels sprouts and peeling away at any tatty outer leaves, halving any larger ones and keeping the smaller ones whole.
Cook the sprouts in a large pan of boiling salted water for five minutes, then drain and leave to steamdry.
Grab a frying pan and melt the butter on a medium-low heat.
Pick and add half the sage leaves and cook for three minutes until crispy and put aside in a bowl.
