    boil till they are al dente (never cut a cross in the bottom)then mash, mix crushed chesnuts and add a spoon of fresh cream stir and sprinkle cut up smoked crispy bacon on top.


    Hmmmmmmmmm!

    or try boil as above rinse in cold water till needed then a quick fry in duck fat.

    NEVER let them go soggy and always buy on the stalk (if you don't grow them)

    I love sprouts anyway, agree you must never cook for long as soggy is a disaster, but that recipe is definately one to save and try.
