Outlander's Sam Heughan cancels Christmas date with fans as he reveals festive food favourites

Outlander's Sam Heughan had to cancel his Christmas date with fans due to other commitments but took the chance instead to reveal his festive food favourites.

Fans were looking forward to a festive live video dubbed 'A Dram With Sam' from Sam who is currently in New Zealand where he is set to film a second series of Men In Kilts with co-star Grahame McTavish.

However, Sam revealed he's ended up having to travel during the time he'd set aside for it.

He said: "I’m afraid I have to postpone my IGLIVE due to changes in travel plans but will schedule in the new year! Until then, have a great Xmas all!

"I’ll be lighting the fire, pouring a @SassenachSpirit and putting my feet up (after a wee dance!!)."

Sam Heughan opened up about his love of sprouts in Harpers Bazaar (Harpers Bazaar)

Sam however did chat with Harpers Bazaar US to tell them about his food diary and everything he eats in a day.

During the chat he also revealed he's a huge fan of Brussel Sprouts particularly those cooked by his brother, as well as mince pies over Chrimbo.

Sam said: "If I'm totally honest I tend to lie back and let my brother or my family do it I'm extremely lazy at Christmas. All I want to do is eat chocolates and watch Christmas movies but my favourite part of the meal my brother does extremely well are Brussel sprouts.

"They've had a renaissance. Growing up Brussel sprouts were vile things everyone avoided and in America I have the best.

"My brother will beat most of them - he puts in lemon zest maybe garlic, balsamic - I think they are a secret recipe, just incredible."

He added: "My favourite holiday dessert is mince pies. I love them.

"They are mincemeat with currants, alcohol spices, almost like Christmas pud but in a pie."

Sam also revealed he likes monkfish curry from a Glasgow Indian (He's been spotted at Glasgow's Dakhin before), sweet potato chips, porridge in the morning, protein shakes, and tomato and basil soup.

He also revealed Text For You co-star Priyanka Chopra footed the bill for him in her New York restaurant.
