A delicious vegetable that is traditionally hated by all kids and many adults. It is the veg that is hidden under the fat or skin from the meat. BUT some people love them (subject to how they are cooked). It is often used in sketches as a joke (remember the Vicar of Dibley vs David Horton sprout eating competition?).

Personally I love sprouts cooked in a pressure cooker so they are soft, mushy and really sweet.

So, for a bit of post Christmas fun, a poll.  Do you like sprouts and, if so, how cooked?

By the way, few places here seem to sell fresh sprouts.  I was lucky enough to find them in the indoor market in Tortosa and the veg shop opposite (ish) Lidl.  I did hear rumour they were on sale in Suma but there weren't any when I went looking :(

Hi Nigel
I love Brussel Sprouts, totally over cooked preferably with tiny bits of bacon. :)
I hate them hard, its like crunching up testicles (dont ask how I know) :-/

Nigel,have you ever thought about taking up origami or maybe plane spotting ?

Grew my own this year and they were delicious.
The only problem that we have is that 'er indoors likes them mushy whilst I like mine firm (but whether it is like crunching a testicle or not I don't know.

I have a friend in England who likes them sliced raw in a sandwich! Personaly if I eat them afterwards its "The Sprouts of Wrath"        Paul

try this      brussel sprouts blanched and cut in half leave 2 cool place on top of a slice of black pudding or bottifaries with rice piwrce with a cocktail stick batter and deep fry  delicous or beautiful as we would say as we come from norfolk :) :D ;D ::)
