Brussel Sprouts 'Carbonara'

I know Brussel Sprouts are good for you.  But I have had difficulty with the taste.  This time I've found a way to enjoy them courtesy of some naughty ingredients.  I'll be doing it again.

Ingredients:

Brussel Sprouts

Bacon

Crispy onions (store bought)

Cream

Pepper

Parmesan cheese

Parsley for garnish

Method:

Halve the sprouts and cook them for 5 minutes in boiling water.

Then refresh them with cold water – important to stop them cooking on. Drain the liquid away and let them sit.

Cook your bacon – I cut it up into little pieces first but you could do that after if you likes.

Pour the cooked bacon and bacon fat over the sprouts.  Add your cream and pepper plus ½ a cup or so of grated parmesan.  Heat it all gently.

Garnish with chopped parsley.  Yummo!

True, because there is no risk of them saying the wrong thing
