This elegant vegetarian side dish elevates the humble Brussels sprout into something truly special. By simmering the sprouts in a light stock before finishing them in a silken cream sauce, they retain a perfect texture while soaking up the aromatic notes of fresh marjoram. The addition of golden, buttery pine nuts provides a sophisticated crunch that complements the earthy sweetness of the vegetables beautifully.
Ideal for a festive spread or a comforting Sunday roast, these creamy Brussels sprouts offer a refined alternative to more traditional preparations. The dish can be prepared up to four hours in advance and gently reheated, making it an excellent choice for stress-free entertaining. Serve alongside roasted root vegetables or a nut roast for a complete and flavourful seasonal meal.
