Imperial | Metric | USA

Converted from imperial


Directions

Step 1

Put a large pot of salty water on the stove to boil.

While the water is heating, cut the brussels sprouts in half and slice thinly, starting at the top of the sprout and working back toward the stem. Discard the hard tip of the stem side.

Step 2

Cut the bacon into pieces about 1/4 inch wide and put them in a large sauté pan over medium heat.

Step 3

Once the water is boiling, add all the brussels sprouts and boil them for 2 minutes.

While the sprouts are boiling, get a large bowl of ice water ready.

Transfer the brussels sprouts to the ice water (this will shock them vibrant green and stop the cooking) and chill thoroughly. Move to a colander to drain.

Would you tweak this recipe? If so, how?

e.g. Add half a chopped onion, use less butter, shake not stir...
