William's favorite brussels sprouts
4 servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | pint | Brussels sprouts |
| 2 | cups | Low fat milk |
| Salt to taste | ||
| Pepper to taste | ||
| 3 | tablespoons | Flour |
| ¼ | cup | Sour cream |
| 2 | cups | Water |
Directions
Remove the stems and any loose or wilted leaves from the Brussel sprouts. Stab the tip of a paring knife into the bottom of each sprout, cutting in about ½ inch deep. Make another cut in each sprout across the cut you've already made, forming a deep X in the base of each sprout.
Pour the 2 cups of water in a heavy saucepan and bring to a gentle boil. Add the sprouts and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes just until tender. Do not overcook.
Drain set aside. Combine the salt, pepper, sour cream, flour and milk into a cream sauce. Serve as a side dish.
