Try this- cut them in half-melt a couple of Tbls of butter, and add a
clove or 2 of smashed garlic. Take the garlic out after it starts to
brown. Add sprouts, cut side down, cover, & reduce heat to med-lo- cook
for approx 15min or so until done to your satisfaction. The cut sides
caramelize nicely. Toss with a little parmesano, and enjoy. Believe it
or not, my kids ask for them!
