By far the best way to make brussel sprouts

What you need:

 

Approximately 15 Brussel Sprouts

2-3 Tablespoons of butter

1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice

3-5 Minced Garlic cloves

 

 

First step: cut off the ends from each sprout and slice an X in the bottom of each on as shown above.

 

Step two: After you cut off the bottoms and slice the X throw them in your steamer to cook.

 

You want them to be soft enough to stick a fork in it but not soft enough that when you pick the fork up it slides off. So, basically slightly undercooked.

 

Step three: In a separate frying pan or wok like I used here, add your butter, lemon juice and then brussel sprouts.

Cook on medium-high until they begin to brown slightly on the outside. The little leaves that fall off and crispify are the best part. Allow to brown but not too long to burn the garlic.

 

These are the best brussel sprouts I have ever had; my mother in-law taught me how to make these and I have been making them ever since...

 

Don't be discouraged, sometimes it takes a couple times to get the timing down for the steaming part; over steaming them can cause them to come out a little mushy after frying them up. But after a couple times you should have it down no problem!!!

 

ENJOY!!!
