Rachel Hornibrook’s PARMESAN CRUSTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Ingredients

• 500g Irish Brussels Sprouts
• 40g butter, melted
• 50g parmesan cheese
• 1 tsp chilli flakes
• 1 garlic clove, crushed
• 1 tsp honey
• 1 tbsp oil
• Salt & pepper

Cooking Equipment

• 12 x 8 inch oven dish, parchment lined

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C fan.
2. Prepare your Brussels sprouts by washing and cutting them in half.
3. Add the melted butter to a large bowl along with the chilli flakes, garlic, honey, salt and pepper. Add 30g of the parmesan and mix well.
4. Add the prepared Brussels sprouts to the melted-butter mix, and mix again.
5. Spread the oil evenly to the lined baking dish
6. Sprinkle the remaining parmesan evenly over the lined and oiled baking dish. This will give the parmesan crust.
7. Add the Brussels sprouts cut side down, onto the parmesan.
8. Roast in the oven for approximately 20 minutes.

Note: if you want a thick parmesan crust, dip each Brussel sprout cut-side, into parmesan individually, before placing on the oiled dish.
