Brussel Sprouts You Want To Eat Recipe


Brussel Sprouts You Want To Eat Recipe
We had this at Antica Trattoria in San Francisco, and one of the owners divulged. If the ingredients sound odd, think of red cabbage. It tastes fresh and interesting (and good).

Ingredients
  • 1 lb. brussel sprouts, heavy for their size, if possible frost-kissed
  • 1 T butter (can be peanut oil if you want to go vegan)
  • 2 t brown sugar
  • salt

Directions
  1. Trim hard ends from brussel sprouts and cut a cross up into each end.
  2. Boil in salted water for 15 m, or until you can easily stick a knife into them. Leave the lid off so that they stay nice and green.
  3. Remove from the water, and cut into thick slices, top to stem, the way you slice mushrooms, 3-4 slices per sprout.
  4. Heat fat of choice in a non-stick saute pan, and add sprouts.
  5. Cook over fairly high heat, stirring gently with two wooden spoons, so that some surfaces start to become pleasantly browned.
  6. At this point, sprinkle in the brown sugar, and continue to stir and cook, perhaps another two minutes, but less if they start to get too dark.
  7. Salt to taste.

Yep - I had a bad brussel sprout experience as a child....not sure if I've recovered! lol


Promise to buy when in season! When I worked I was too lazy to prepare and have eaters reject them!! Now, DH says he loves brussel sprouts! They do look cool on the chunky stem!! thank you for a healthy approach! 55555
