Brussel Sprouts with Feta and Pinenuts



Another excellent veggie side dish - I served it for thanksgiving, and everyone (who likes brussel sprouts) loved it. If you're not a sprouts lover - well, you might want to pass on this.

Brussel Sprouts with Feta and Pinenuts
Serves 8

1 kg fresh brussel sprouts
1 large red onion
50 g pine nuts
200 g feta cheese
butter

Trim the sprouts, and remove any dark or damaged leaves. Boil in lightly salted water for a few minutes until just soft. Drain and immediately plunge into ice water, to stop the cooking and retain the green color.

Slice the onion. Toast the pine nuts in the oven or in a dry frying pan until golden and fragrant.

Heat a bit of butter in a large pan and fry the sprouts for a few minutes. Then add the onion slices and the nuts, and crumble over the feta. Serve at once.
