Categories     Vegetable

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

For the Caramelized Shallots:
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
6 - 8 shallots thinly sliced lengthwise
1 teaspoon sugar
Kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper
For the Gratin:
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Kosher salt
2 pounds brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
2 tablespoons flour
8 oz. Gruyere, grated
1/2 oz. Parmesan, grated
1 teaspoon lemon zest
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup caramelized shallots
For the Topping:
3 cups coarse fresh breadcrumbs (used a baguette)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons minced fresh flat leaf parsley

Steps:

  • For the Caramelized Shallots: Warm the butter in a medium, heavy bottom saucepan over medium-low heat. Add sliced shallots and season with sugar, a pinch of salt and a few turns of freshly ground pepper. Cook shallots until caramelized (light brown and soft), stirring frequently. This should take 15 - 20 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of caramelized shallots for the gratin. Refrigerate any leftovers. For the Gratin & Topping: Preheat oven to 375. Grease a 9x13 baking dish. Set aside. Prepare an ice bath. Also set aside. Fill a large pot 3/4 of the way with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling add a handful of salt. Drop in the brussels sprouts and cook until just tender (about 5 minutes). Using slotted spoon, transfer to ice bath. Drain and gently dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, Gruyere, Parmesan, lemon zest, 2 teaspoons of kosher salt and the freshly ground pepper. Add the cream, brussels sprouts and caramelized shallots, stirring to combine. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and smooth out the top. To make the topping, add bread crumbs, melted butter, lemon zest, salt, pepper and parsley to a medium bowl, stirring to combine. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the gratin. Bake until the bread crumbs are golden brown (30 - 35 minutes). Let the gratin rest for 10 - 15 minutes before serving.

This gratin was a disaster. The Brussels sprouts were overcooked and the caramelized shallots were burnt. The Gruyère cheese did not melt properly and the dish was very dry. I would not recommend this recipe.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The Brussels sprouts were not very flavorful and the caramelized shallots did not add much sweetness. The Gruyère cheese was also not very noticeable. I would recommend adding more seasoning to this dish.

This gratin was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still very good. The Brussels sprouts were roasted to perfection and the caramelized shallots added a wonderful sweetness. The Gruyère cheese melted perfectly and created a nice crust on top. I

I'm not a big fan of Brussels sprouts, but I loved this recipe! The caramelized shallots and Gruyère cheese really helped to balance out the bitterness of the Brussels sprouts. I will definitely be making this again.
