How do you make yours?

I'm sorry, but the only way I can eat Brussel Sprouts is to cover them with cheeze! LOL... my mother liked them and would make them occasionally and I was "encouraged" to eat at least half..... even with her wonderful cooking skills I never liked them, so I'm looking forward to reading the wonderful suggestions here....

I cut them in half, toss with olive oil salt and pepper and roast in the oven until they are soft and a little charred. Oh so good. Usually have the oven on about 425 degrees.

I make an "X" at the core on the bottom, cut them (not all the way through) in quarters and roast them with carrots.

I make them the same way but now I fry some bacon and crumble it over the the brussel sprouts a minute or two before they finish roasting......really good!

I crisp up a few pieces of diced pancetta in a braiser. I toss my halved sprouts into the pan then add a bit of chicken stock. By the time the stock cooks down the brussels are ready. Sometimes they need a bit of s&p, depends on the pancetta. Delish. You can sprinkle some parm cheese, add some pistacios (unsalted or watch the salt as you're cooking)

I steam them for a few minutes then toss with butter, salt & pepper. LOVE them.

Funny that I just served some tonight for dinner. They were frozen in a bag and supposedly had butter sauce. After cooking in the microwave, the sauce seemed to have vanished. Extra butter was on hand.

More often than not, I make them the same as adeleag. Sometimes, I'll also sprinkle them with lemon juice and/or parmesan cheese. Here are a few other recipes that we were very happy with:

Just remember, there is a very good reason why brussels sprout scented air freshener does not exist.
