This warming Christmas accompaniment combines apple and ginger to give a kick. It is ideal for using up windfall apples or just for an apple glut! Tried and tested many times – that addition of ginger, garlic and pickling spice give a great flavour.
Brussel sprout detox salad
"My fridge is piled high with brussel sprouts ready for christmas dinner. I don’t know about you but I get bored of eating them boiled. If you have any sprouts leftover after christmas dinner then they are delicious raw. This recipe is a welcome break from the usual christmas fare and is a delicious light and healthy meal." Eco-chef Tom Hunt.
