The Brussels Sprout Appreciation Society

[katie1997]

I'm in - as long as there's herb butter and chestnuts (tu)

[Huguenot]

Exactly how we do them!

Jamie Oliver?

[DJKillaQueen]

I hate to admit it, but I do love my brussels and could eat oodles of them.....the consequences of which I won't discuss :))

[mockney piers]

Mum.

[katie1997]

Huguenot, no, I didn't realise Jamie did them that way but I must admit he is one 'celeb' chef I have warmed to in recent years. I watched his show last night and was impressed with the dishes he cooked, even taught his 90 year old gran (he calls her tiger?!) how to do ham and eggs.

DJKQ - LOL re the consequences, lets leave that one there. This is an Appreciation Society after all :))

[Huguenot]

Cold with a mustard vinaigrette.

[Jah Lush]

Parp!

[felt-tip]

stirred through with loads of pepper, butter and crispy bacon.

[Tarot]

Like felt tip said,but added malt vinegar.

[Ladymuck]

I not only love them, but grow them too...they are the only things that are doing well at the allotment at the moment.

Nice "de-leafed" (as though a mini-cabbage) and stir fried in butter and seasoning. Simple but lovely. Nutritious too. By all means throw in bacon bits if that's what cranks your engine.

[Jeremy]

Fried with bacon and chestnuts... or cooked au gratin with almonds. Lovely!

[felt-tip]

Jeremy - please tell me more about this almond creation.

[bonniebird]

Om nom nom :) my favourite vegetable

[Jeremy]

felt-tip - nothing exotic, just covered in cheese sauce, topped with flaked almonds and put under the grill.

I made it with cashews last time, as we'd run out of almonds... was also pretty good.

[PeckhamRose]

You're having no more than six. And with your back to the balcony door.

My favourite veg cooked just about any way. But nothing beats cold sprouts the next day put in a sandwich with vinegar, freshly ground black pepper and brown sauce! Classy, eh?

[DJKillaQueen]

Have you ever let a firework off indoors before Peckhmarose? ::o

[Tarot]

There good for throwing at sleeping relatives too lol

[felt-tip]

Cheers Jeremy. Will do that boxing day with my turkey and apricot pie. Winner

[katie1997]

Whether hot or cold, in sandwiches, salads or sauteed and grilled with cheese, the humble sprout cannot fail to please.

*Parp*

[dbboy]

Boil and then pour over breadcrumbs cooked in hot butter, unbeatable.

[karter]

Katie, sprouts are so delish, your christmas gift awaits. ;)

[liam864]

Peel them and the kids know no different. Mix with bacon,mushrooms and carlic, then fry.

Beautiful.;-)

[DJKillaQueen]

I got a Christmas card today that was animals made from brussels sprouts LOL...I was thrilled!

Will try and scan and post it today

[Ms_Lilith]

Beware the aroma of house guests eating the devilish sprouts!
