Best Ever Brussels Sprouts Recipes

BEST-EVER BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• 1. Trim the Brussels and peel away any tatty outer leaves, halving any larger ones and keeping the smaller ones whole. Cook in a large pan of boiling salted water for 5 minutes, then drain and leave to steam dry.
• 2. Melt the butter in a large frying pan on a medium-low heat. Pick and add half the sage leaves, cook for 3 minutes, or until crispy, then tip into a small bowl. 3. Place the pan back on the heat and squeeze the sausage meat from the skins directly into the pan, breaking it up with the back of a spoon. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until golden and crispy, while you peel and finely slice the onion, and pick and finely chop the remaining sage. 4. Add the onion and chopped sage to the pan and cook for 5 minutes on a medium-high heat, or until the onions have softened, stirring occasionally. 5. Peel and core the apple, then finely dice. Tip into the pan, and add the sprouts too, then add the Worcestershire sauce and toss until hot through. 6. Transfer to a serving platter, scatter over the crispy sage leaves, and dig in! Tip: For a veggie-friendly version, swap the sausages for chopped chestnuts, and use anchovy-free Worcestershire sauce.

THE BEST ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Remove the crusts from the bread slices. Cut the bread into large cubes. Transfer to a food processor and pulse until uniformly chopped (the pieces of bread should be slightly smaller than a peppercorn; you should have about 2 cups).
• Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the melted butter, Parmesan, a pinch of salt and few grinds of black pepper. Spread on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until golden brown and crisp, stirring halfway through, about 14 minutes. Set aside on a wire rack to cool.
• Meanwhile, place another rimmed baking sheet in the oven to preheat.
• Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts, remove any tough or bruised outer leaves and cut each in half lengthwise. Toss the Brussels sprouts, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a large bowl.
• Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven and add the Brussels sprouts, cut-side down, in an even layer. Roast until well browned and tender, about 30 minutes.
• Transfer the Brussels sprouts to a serving platter and top with the Parmesan breadcrumbs.
