  • About
Slice your sprouts into fine rounds or half moons. Heat oil or butter in a wide pan, add the sprouts, season and fry over a moderate heat, stirring frequently, until wilted – about 5 minutes. Adding some acid really lifts their flavour, so include a dash of lemon juice or vinegar a minute or so before they come out of the pan. Eat as they are, or jazz them up by:
  • Frying some bacon lardons until just starting to colour then adding the sliced sprouts. If there is enough bacon fat in the pan you may not need extra oil or butter. This is good topped off with toasted flaked almonds or for a sumptuous pasta sauce, wait until the sprouts have cookedm then stir through a spoonful of cream, letting it bubble up and reduce for a couple of minutes.
  • Stir-frying the sprouts quickly over a high heat with a pinch or two of chilli flakes, some slivers of garlic, fresh ginger and a splash of soy sauce.
  • Stir dried cranberries, chopped pecans and parsley through fried sprouts for a festive side.
