Sweet Potato Shepherd's Pie
This is one of the worst recipes I've ever seen. How many eggs ? what do you do with the stock ? what's the deal with the garlic ? SE has got to do better, especially on a featured recipe.
Help with Brussels Sprouts
My family didn't like Brussel sprouts until I cooked them using a recipe from Molly Stevens wonderful cookbook, ALL ABOUT BRAISING. Now my wife and kids regularly request Brussel sprouts. Here is the recipe:
- 1- 1/4 lb Brussel sprouts
- 3 T unsalted butter
- 1/4 t coarse sea salt
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 T lemon juice
(1) Clean and quarter the Brussel sprouts
(2) In a large skillet ( 12" diameter) melt butter, add sprouts and salt, cook stirring occasionally until sprouts are nicely browned, about 5 minutes
(3) Pour in cream, stir to mix, cover pot, lower heat, and simmer for 30-35 minutes
(4) Remove lid, add lemon juice, season to taste, serve immediately
So easy and so good.
