HINTS & TIPS
· No need to score a cross in the bottom – it just makes them soggy!
· If you boil them - keep your eye on the cooking time. Don’t go over eight minutes!
· Roasted sprouts taste completely different to those that are boiled or steamed, it makes them sweeter! Try roasting them with some chestnuts and bacon for added yum!
