In reply to the discussion: What's the best way to cook Brussels Sprouts? [View all]Warpy
(110,900 posts)43. The only way I can cope with them is quartered
and tossed with olive oil, salt and pepper, but onto a baking sheet, and baked. About 5-10 minutes before I take 'em out, I mix them with some minced garlic and red pepper flakes.
The problem with them most of the time is that the exterior gets slimy and the interior stays raw and bitter. This eliminates that problem, plus I think I can get nearly anything down with enough garlic and hot pepper.

I cut them in half, mix with a little olive oil and chopped onion, salt and pepper. Roast on sheet

Roasted with olive oil, garlic is my favorite too. I have no problem eating them cold afterwards.

easy is to trim and rinse them, then nuke for a few minutes until done to your taste
