Simple Brussels Sprouts


Brussels Sprouts


A lot of people are scared of Brussels sprouts but we love these as a great side vegetable with Turkey on Christmas Day, or indeed any time of the year

People are also heard saying Brussels sprouts can only be enjoyed if roasted and "burned" this is nonsense, you can enjoy them as they are boiled and tossed in Butter

I promise you will like them

This is a simple recipe using only Brussels sprouts, butter and fresh ground pepper



You will need

Brussels sprouts
1 tbsp Butter
fresh ground pepper
pinch of salt


  • First clean the Brussels Sprouts and then cut the stub off the end, and pull off the small outer leaves
