Notes

  • Use small fresh Brussels sprouts as these are typically sweeter
  • After washing the Brussels sprouts, dry them thoroughly with a paper towel. This will prevent sogginess
  • Discard any outer leaves that may be discoloured or wilted
  • Use a large pan and spread out the vegetables, so they roast evenly instead of overcrowding them. This too will prevent soggy veggies
