Jump to: Newest in thread
Now I'm a bit of a weirdo (no comment) but absolutely love them on Xmas day or Sunday roast but not so they're reduced to slush eeuurrggh !
I'm a sprouts with olive oil, garlic butter, grated Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper and bacon croutons kind of guy. |

Yep - all these people going "ewwww" are clearly overcooking them. They are, admittedly, foul if you boil them into soggy little bags of pale green fart juice.
Just sauté 'em in a little olive oil or butter for a few minutes, maybe with some garlic. Throw in some bacon or pancetta and finish with loads of black pepper. Awesome stuff.
_layfullsam - I've never thought about adding parmesan. That sounds amazing. I'll be trying that! |

"Just so I know how many weirdos are on here !!  "
I truly love Brüssel sprouts and have been known to eat a plateful by themselves for dinner. And no, they don’t give me flatulence  |

True story !
Sprouts is one of the very few foods that cook better from frozen
Don’t cross the stalk end with a knife makes them take on fluid
Blanche before and cool
Flambé the fuckers I have about 9 dishes for sprouts !
This years at the restaraunt is with walnuts lardon and flambé in cognac |

I love them. Pretty much every other meal this time of year includes them for me.
Roast with bacon jerky and parmesan last night.
Might add them to a stir fry tonight.
I even had them dipped in chocolate one year (not a great success I'll admit). |

I have a better recipe for them . Retrieve from freezer , open bag , and throw them at unsuspecting Carol singers. If there is any left , then feed them to next doors cat so they have to put up with sprouty cat farts all day. If there is still any left , burn them !! |
