Ingredients
- 800 g brussel sprouts (washed and trimmed)
- 1 clove garlic (skin removed and bruised)
- 300 ml double cream ((heavy cream))
- grated nutmeg
- salt & pepper
Instructions
- To prepare the Brussels sprouts, wash and trim them and cut a small cross at the base of the stem (this helps them to cook evenly). Place in a large pan of salted boiling water and cook for 8-10 minutes until tender.
- Once the sprouts are tender, drain them and set aside to cool. Once cool enough to handle, shred the sprouts finely using a sharp kitchen knife.
- To make the sauce, place the cream and garlic in a saucepan and heat over a medium heat to a slow boil. Stir frequently to stop the cream from burning.
- Reduce this mixture by half, remove and discard the garlic.
- Mix the shredded sprouts into the cream, add a few gratings of nutmeg and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Stir together until the shredded sprouts are completely covered in sauce. Warm up and serve immediately.
