Another sprout recipe aimed to people and especially children that nevee liked sprouts before. The orange juice takes away the bitterness and the crunchy almonds and sweet raisins are sure crowd pleasers
Serves 4:
750grams of sprouts, halved
75grams of butter
1 orange juiced
½ orange zest
Salt and pepper
25-35grams of shaved almonds, toasted in a dry pan
50grams of raisins
Method:
To a pan add sprouts, juice and butter and the zest, cover and heat gently .
Leave for 8-10 minutes or until sprouts are soft (depends on their size)
Shake or stir pan once in a while to make sure nothing sticks.
Season with salt and pepper, sprinkle over the toasted almonds.
My tips: too much zest can make the dish bitter, I find halve an orange works well.
Cloves and nutmeg go well with this dish, but as this recipe is aimed to please children, you might want to be careful with these.
