20 minutes

Brussels sprouts with cream and cheese is a refined combination of tenderness and rich flavor. Historically, Brussels sprouts were popular in Europe, especially in Belgium, where they have been cultivated since the 17th century. This recipe turns them into a true gastronomic delight: caramelized in butter, they acquire a light crunch and nutty notes. Garlic adds spiciness while cream provides softness and velvetiness. The finishing touch is Parmesan, which gives the dish a rich flavor with a pleasant saltiness. The addition of chili pepper makes it slightly spicy, perfectly balancing the creamy texture. The dish is great as a standalone side or as an accompaniment to meat and fish main courses, creating a cozy and harmonious tasty accent.
