Brussel Sprouts
Brussel Sprouts, although much aligned, are magnificent when cooked to perfection - still with a little resistance (not cooked to a watery pulp), finished with butter or olive oil, a splash of lemon juice or good wine vinegar, salt, pepper and maybe some freshly grated nutmeg.
They can be steamed, sauteed or roasted. I prefer any method over boiling them - memories of bitter, over-cooked b.sprouts as a kid.
My favourite way is to slightly steam halved b.sprouts until bright green, then toss with olive oil and any other flavouring(s) I might be using (black pepper, pomegranate molasses, preserved lemon, or .... etc etc), then roast.
