Y’see this kind of idiocy is fuelled by iggerance. Sprouts are hella tasty.

Exactly, trashing the humble sprout for his staggering ignorance regarding proper sprout preparation. And on christmas eve no less.

Well if he can’t say anything nice about sprouts, best to say nothing at all. He drew it on himself.

Santy’s probably just not that into you. I know he’d do n’ all like.

Brussel sprouts are my favorite ONLY if they’re boiled in chicken stock which somehow neutralises the harsh acidy taste. In fact, here’s the full recipe
Heat saucepan #1 with a little olive oil,
Pop in the brussel sprouts and shallots (should be about 2-3 brussel sprouts for each shallot) for about five minutes stirring occasionally
Separately, take one oxo chicken stock cube, add boiling water, mix and stir in a bowl (easy, isn’t it)
Strain the brussel sprouts and shallots in a metal strainer
Pop the brussel sprouts and shallots into saucepan #2 with pour in the chicken stock
Boil for around 10 minutes
Absolutely delish, you’ll be having brussel sprouts throughout the year!

Sounds lovely. But taste for brussels sprouts is genetic, innit?

No, hated them when I was younger, insipid testicles of acidity, and even drowning them in gravy couldn’t redeem them. Boiling in chicken stock seems to neutralise the harsh taste (searing them beforehand and serving with shallots transforms them into something special). If you’re not sure, maybe the Christmas dinner is not the meal on which to conduct your first experiment, but try it afterwards. They’re 49c at Tesco at the minute for 500g,

Put them in a pot of cold water.
Bring it to the boil, and wait 20mins.
Drain the water away and eat them, smug in the thought that you didn’t bother your hole with any ‘shalots’ shenanigans or chicken-stock sh*te.
You lucky b’stard.
Look at you.
You have sprouts.
Sprouts are great.

I’m also fond of the odd carrot, but I’d appreciate it if you didn’t misconstrue that and try to imply something.
Carrots are small.
God I’m bored…

Christ. Too much hassle. Par boil the little bastards , fry them in a pan with butter, onions, garlic and salt til brown. Job done.
