Brussels sprouts are lovely. Do not overcook them though.

You can't overcook a sprout. It's not possible !!

....even though I struggle with the idea of them as a sandwich filling.

So do I, it put me off an otherwise particularly glorious sounding turkey and rye based offering...

Did anyone see the tv programme a while ago about farmers growing sprouts. Apparently, the way to really eat them is fresh off the stalk with just the very botton of the stem cut off. Its the only way to compare flavours and ripeness...........

Bubble & squeak made with sprouts is superb. Fry to a black crust, serve with leftover turkey and a spoonful of pickled cabbage. Nom nom nom.
