There is no photo, as I left my camera at work and can’t be bothered to go back and get it.
The picture I have used is merely a repeat of one from yesterday. My report is this – they look good and they are easy enough to do. People who have never had them before will be amazed. But they don’t taste much better than ordinary baked potatoes they way I did them (rapeseed oil and garlic seasoning).
I will try olive oil next, butter after that and even goose fat if I need to. They make a good talking point if you are having people round.
The stir-fried Brussels and broccoli were better. boil the Brussels and broccoli fro 5 minutes the stir fry them with soy sauce, honey, some rings of red chilli, ginger and garlic. It was very nice, and I suspect it was healthy too. I’m thinking of ways to serve Brussels over Christmas, and this is going to be one of the ways.
No photo of those either.
You’ll have to be content with a repeated photo for now. I’m going to have tea and toast in front of the TV now because Julia is away in Leeds for the day and I have several hours of quiz viewing to do, uninterrupted by conversation or the rattle of wrapping paper.
Will be back with another post later.
We grew brussels sprouts this year. They did well, and were quite good!
I do like sprouts. We had a very successful year the first time we grew them but didn’t tread them in properly in the second year and they didn’t bud properly. Schoolboy error!

Those Brussels will be good.
They were, and I finished off by mopping the pan out with a bit of bread. Very nice.
Excellent finish
🙂
Lovely picture at the top of the post….I’m just off to eat something.
I have bought butter for my next attempt. 🙂
