Proust's works: a Christmas tradition? (7)
I believe the answer is:
sprouts
'proust's works a christmas tradition?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'proust's works' is the wordplay.
'works' is an anagram indicator (work can mean to twist or convulse).
'prousts' anagrammed gives 'SPROUTS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sprouts that I've seen before include "Green vegetables" , "Grows vegetables" , "Green vegetable" , "Small cabbage-like veg." , "[TRIMMING]" .)
