A flavourful, quick, and bold recipe: these oven-roasted Brussels sprouts win over even the most sceptical eaters. Perfect as a side dish or added to a meal bowl, they offer a beautiful combination of textures and flavours.
Dietitian's tip: The bitterness of Brussels sprouts often comes from overcooking. Roasted in the oven as in this recipe, they develop a tender texture and a slightly sweet flavour that makes them irresistible.
