Creamed Brussels Sprouts

As it was my very first time planning a Christmas dinner, i wanted to keep the menu as traditional and classic as possible. After doing much research, i realized that brussels sprouts is one of the must-have trimmings to accompany Miss Turkey. This recipe that i found from BBC’s website is one of the most easiest dishes i ever made, yet still promising good taste. i must warn you though, that it is all about timing and discipline here. Don’t overlook these 3 little tips:

• ONLY boil sprouts between 8 – 10 minutes.
• MUST soak in cold / iced water after to stop the cooking.
• KEEP an eye on bacon so that they are crisp, not burnt.
