Brussels Sprouts with Leeks

THIS is a dish I’ve tried a few times for my husband and me. Since we both love Brussel sprouts, I often experiment with different combinations to enhance the taste. We found leeks give the sprouts a special flavor.

Ingredient

10 Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
1 medium leek (white portion only), thinly sliced
1 tablespoon butter
Dash salt

Direction

In a large saucepan, bring 1 in. water and Brussels sprouts to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 8 minutes.
Add leek; cover and simmer 2-4 minutes longer or until vegetables are tender. Drain; stir in butter and salt.
