Roasted Brussel Sprouts…very good, easy to make, but also easy to dress up in lots of ways…toss in sliced almonds, or other nuts during the last few minutes of roasting…toss with some crumbled blue cheese before serving…drizzle with maple syrup (the real stuff only!) and melted butter(and blue cheese!)…throw in some shaved reggiano**…you get the idea.

Funny thing about sprouts. They are very good raw, and wonderful roasted, fancied up as Helen has suggested or even rather plain with just a bit of butter and maybe some garlic. But boiled? I simply cannot abide them! Of course, I am the same way about a lot of things, like spinach – love it raw, can eat it all day raw, but cooked? Can't stand it!

I hear 'ya on the boiled 'sprouts, Pete…boiled, they are gross , but roasted, with all the brown, carmelized bits, they are sublime. I should add: you can toss them with bacon crumbles and maple syrup…drizzle them with cream, dot with butter, sprinkle with cheese and bake 'till bubbley…, the list goes on and on, LOL.
p.s. Don't mind me, I an old lily-gilder from way back ;) I'm of the "Buzby Berkley" school of cooking.

Personally, I core them (yes tedious I know) then I peel all the leaves off (again tedious I know) and then once I have a heaping pile (and I mean heaping), i toss them into a saute pan in which I have fried some bits of bacon, or prosciotto or ham …. I saute the brussel sprouts 'leaves' until they start to wilt and then toss them with the meat bits and some fresh ground pepper and serve

I'm probably letting myself in for "gales of derisive laughter", but what is Bubble and Squeak? As we say in the 'States, "with a name like that, its got to be good". Seriously, though, Bubble and Squeak is a charming name, whatever the dish consists of…or should I say of whatever the dish consists?
