Add in 1/2 cup of the stock and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover and simmer with the lid slightly
ajar, until the sprouts are almost tender, and most of the stock/water has simmered away.

Remove the lid, and add in the last of the stock, the sugar, and the apple cider vinegar. Cook over
medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is reduced. About 5 minutes. Season with salt & pepper.

These can be served either hot or cold.
