Stewed Brussels sprouts are a delicious and nutritious side dish, characterized by the combination of Brussels sprouts, cooked ham, and liquid cream. This dish is easy to prepare and offers an irresistible mix of flavors. The pairing of sweet cooked ham with the creaminess of liquid cream makes the Brussels sprouts even more tasty. Serve them as a side dish to enrich your lunch or dinner.
Remove the yellowed outer leaves from the Brussels sprouts and trim the stem, but not too much to prevent the other leaves from falling off
Wash them well, then boil them in a pot of salted boiling water for about fifteen minutes
Melt the butter in a pan, add the Brussels sprouts after draining them and placing them on a cloth to dry well, and the cooked ham cut into strips; salt and let them season, stirring occasionally
Now put a small saucepan on the fire with the cream and a stock cube; when the latter has dissolved, pour it over the Brussels sprouts and let them cook for another 5-10 minutes on low heat
You can also use a good béchamel enriched with plenty of grated Parmesan instead of cream and brown in the oven for about twenty minutes
Or even more simply, brown them in plenty of melted butter flavored with a few sage leaves and plenty of freshly ground black pepper
It is a typically winter side dish that goes excellently with boiled or roasted meats, but also with baked and grilled fish
