Reblogged from The Witchen Kizz:
Never has a vegetable been so malign as the poor brussels sprout. And no wonder - they are the victims of generations of ham-fisted cooking, boiled to the colour and texture of papier-mâché.
Treated with a bit of respect and TLC the brussels sprout emerges from its leafy cocoon as a buttery delight, with barely a hint of its characteristic bitterness.
It's Christmas Eve, and this year my stepson is staying with us. I'm baking him a vegan ham (yes, yes he's vegetarian too...) and will be serving it with roast potatoes and a side of these little babies. Delish!
