Julia Child Chopped Brussels Sprouts In Cream

1. 1

   If you can, get your brussels sprouts from a store that sells them loose in bins; pick out the smaller, tight sprouts.

2. 2

   To prepare the sprouts, clean and trim the sprouts, removing the bottom stem and tougher outside leaves (very important!).

3. 3

   Put the sprouts into a food processor and whir, in batches if necessary, until they are roughly chopped.

4. 4

   In a large saute pan over medium heat, melt the butter; add the chopped sprouts and saute, stirring frequently, until just tender, about 5 minutes.

5. 5

   Add the cream to the pan and bring to a simmer; cook for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chopped sprouts are tender and have absorbed most of the cream.

6. 6

   Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper, then place in serving dish and garnish with parsley.
