I have 2 great recipes for brussels sprouts, both from the fabulous "Bridge" series of cookbooks. This is one of them. I have to take one or the other every (Canadian) Thanksgiving, when we go to my son's for dinner. Even people who don't like sprouts, like these....I hope you try them. Cooking and prep. times are approximate.

DELICIOUS CREAMY CHEESY BRUSSELS SPROUTS
This is the ONLY way I can get my husband and kids to eat Brussels sprouts, and everybody that tries this dish LOVES it! Mouth-watering creamy cheesy sauce slathered over Brussels sprouts so soft your teeth slide through them. You may need to double this recipe to have enough! I always make the sauce while sprouts are cooking, to save time and have it all ready at about the same time.

STIR-FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH SHALLOTS AND SHERRY
This recipe came to The Times in 2011 from Grace Young, the chef and cookbook writer. Make sure the Brussels sprouts are dry before they are put into the pan, or the liquid will turn the stir-fry into a braise. This dish can be made ahead of time, all the better for a Thanksgiving feast or a weeknight dinner.

Steps:
- Trim the ends off the brussels sprouts and remove and discard any discolored outer leaves. Shave a scant 1/4-inch-thick slice off one side of each sprout and put cut side down. Cut scant 1/4-inch-thick slices to make about 6 cups. Transfer the brussels sprouts to the colander of a salad spinner and rinse under cold water. Put the colander into the salad spinner and spin to remove excess water. Combine the sherry and soy sauce in a cup. Combine the salt and pepper in a small dish.
- Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or a 12-inch skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Swirl in the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and swirling the pan, then add the shallots and garlic and stir-fry no more than 10 seconds, until the aromatics are fragrant. Add the brussels sprouts, sprinkle with the salt mixture and stir-fry for 1 minute, just until the brussels sprouts are bright green. Swirl the sherry mixture into the wok, cover and cook 1 minute, until almost all the liquid has evaporated. Uncover and stir-fry for 2 minutes, until the Brussels sprouts are crisp-tender and the liquid has just evaporated. Sprinkle with the pine nuts.

Steps:
- Dissolve 1 tablespoon of salt in enough water to cover the Brussels sprouts in a bowl, and soak the sprouts in the salty water for 1 hour. Drain off the water, and toss the sprouts in olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper to coat thoroughly.
- Preheat oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).
- Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until just beginning to brown at the edges, 5 to 8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; stir in the shallot and mushrooms, then cook until the shallots turn translucent, about 5 more minutes. Sprinkle in the garlic, and cook 1 minute, then stir in the sherry and cream until well combined. Bring the mixture to a boil, and stir until reduced by half. The thickened sauce should coat the back of a spoon.
- While the sauce is cooking, lay the Brussels sprouts, cut sides down, onto a baking sheet, and bake in the preheated oven until the sprouts are browned, about 15 minutes. Transfer the browned sprouts to the sauce, toss to coat, and season to taste with salt and black pepper.

Tips:
- Select small, firm Brussels sprouts: Smaller sprouts are more tender and cook more evenly.
- Trim the Brussels sprouts properly: Remove any yellow or wilted outer leaves and cut off the stem end.
- Blanch the Brussels sprouts before roasting: This helps to brighten their color and reduce their bitterness.
- Use a high roasting temperature: This will help to caramelize the Brussels sprouts and give them a slightly crispy texture.
- Toss the Brussels sprouts in a flavorful sauce before roasting: This will help to add flavor and moisture to the sprouts.
- Roast the Brussels sprouts until they are tender and slightly browned: The exact roasting time will vary depending on the size of the sprouts and the temperature of your oven.
- Serve the Brussels sprouts immediately: They are best enjoyed when they are hot and crispy.
Conclusion:
Sheila's Saucy Brussels Sprouts are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion.
