Recipes for Brussels sprouts that you'll actually enjoy

Brussels sprouts might just be the most maligned vegetable of the vegetable kingdom. But with a little know-how, they're the superstars of winter cooking. Shred them finely and add them to a crunchy slaw - the perfect foil to richer dishes like a roast chicken or slow-cooked lamb shoulder. But to unlock their full flavour potential, give them the heat treatment. Roast or pan-fry the sprouts until their lovely and charred, and pair them with salty cured meats like pancetta or bacon.
