Ingredients
  • 500 g Brussels sprouts
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 3 cloves Garlic
  • 120 ml Heavy cream
  • 50 g Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper

Roasting the Brussels Sprouts

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Wash and trim the Brussels sprouts, then halve or quarter them depending on their size. Toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.

Roast the Brussels sprouts for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly browned, flipping halfway through. This ensures even cooking.

Preparing the Garlic Parmesan Sauce

While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, mince the garlic. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and let it simmer for a minute or two until fragrant.

Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and continue to stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

Combining and Serving

Once the Brussels sprouts are roasted, transfer them to a serving bowl. Pour the creamy garlic parmesan sauce over the Brussels sprouts and toss to coat evenly.

Serve immediately. You can garnish with extra grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
