Creamed Brussels Sprouts with Nutmeg


Serves 4
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes


Ingredient's:

450g fresh sprouts, outer leaves and ends of stalks removed
30g butter
100ml double cream
1tsp grated nutmeg
Small bunch fresh parsley, roughly chopped
Black pepper


Method:

In a pan of boiling water simmer the sprouts for 8-10 minutes until just done. Drain then tip into a food processor.

Add the butter, cream, nutmeg and ¾ of the parsley and season to taste. Whizz until semi-smooth so it still has some texture.

Check the seasoning then spoon into a warm serving dish and scatter with the remaining parsley and a good grind of black pepper.

NB. You can also add some diced crisp bacon to this recipe if you like. Also, any leftover brussels sprouts can be used in bubble and squeak the next day.
