Am making pasta with brussell sprouts. Will report back.

¬_¬

(It's involved a lot of faux-French and -Russian accents from Smaller and me, and a discovery that we simultaneously glow in the dark.)

Reports: HOM TO THE FRAKKIN' NOM!

HOM TO THE FRAKKIN' NOM!

F'reals? Is there a (vague and handwavey is fine) recipe?

* Lightly toast some pine nuts - which we didn't have, so it was like pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds.
* Chop up an onion and four garlic cloves.
* Quarter some brussel sprouts, core them and separate the leaves. A pile roughly the same size as the pile of onions was what we went with.
* Use a pan with plenty of room for them to spread out - lightly fry the onion, garlic and sprouts with some sage for 5-10 minutes.
* Add a tin of chopped tomato and the seeds/nuts. Simmer.

* Cook pasta - we went with tagliatelli, I'd advise something long and thin.
* Stir 55g of butter and 55g of cheese into the pasta, then stir the sauce into it.

Serve!

Oo. I guess with just the right sauce and sprouts fresh and cooked (gestures elegantly) perfecto, those are two foods that could harmonize.
