Creamed Brussels sprouts with nutmeg
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes
Serves: 4
You'll need:
450g fresh sprouts, outer leaves and ends of stalks removed
30g butter
100ml double cream
1tsp grated nutmeg
Small bunch fresh parsley roughly chopped
Black pepper
What to do:
1. In a pan of boiling water simmer the sprouts for 8-10 mins until just done. Drain, then tip into a food processor.
2. Add the butter, cream, nutmeg and three quarters of the parsley and season to taste. Whizz until semi-smooth so it still has some texture.
3. Check the seasoning then spoon into a warm serving dish and scatter with the remaining parsley and a good grind of black pepper.
Why not try:
You can also add some diced crisp bacon to this recipe if you like. Also, any leftover Brussels can be use in Bubble and Squeak the next day.
