Brussels
Sprouts
Oct. 31st Show
Ingredients:
Serves 6-8
2# Brussels
Sprouts, fresh
1/2 Red Bell Pepper
1/2 cup Toasted Slivered Almonds
2 Garlic Cloves, minced
4 Scallions, chopped
1 tsp (Optional, minced ginger)
Salt and pepper to taste
Procedure:
First, wash the sprouts, blot dry and slice a thin piece off the stem
end. Then cut an X in that end. The X allows the cooking to be more even.
Remove loose leaves.
Place in boiling water and cook for about 10-15 minutes, or until a fork
easily penetrates the stem-end.
(Too long cooking will cause them to turn an unappealing gray color.
Do not add acids, like lemon, it will cause a lose of color. They should
be a bright green still when cooked.)
Cut the 1/2 bell pepper into large strips and place in the water during
cooking, this will eliminate the odor.
After they have been cooked and cooled, cut into quarters, approximately
1/4 inch pieces and sauté with the 1/2 cup almonds, 4 chopped scallions,
2 cloves chopped garlic.
