Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 10 min.

Trim the outer leaves off 600 g Brussels sprouts, then rinse.

Stage 2 - 15 min.

Slice the sprouts very thinly (the ideal way is with a mandolin, but a sharp knife will do fine) and put in a salad bowl.

Stage 3 - 1 min.

Add the chopped parsley and the zest of half the lemon.

Stage 4 - 2 min.

Add 20 g Parmesan (Parmigiano Reggiano), grated or in shavings made with a vegetable peeler.

Stage 5 - 1 min.

Mix together.

Stage 6 - 2 min.

Squeeze 1 lemon, add salt, pepper and 5 tablespoons olive oil. Mix well.

Stage 7 - 1 min.

Pour over the salad and mix again.

Your Brussels sprout salad is ready.

Remarks

If you use a knife to slice the sprouts, cut them in half first to make it easier.

It is worth trying this with lime instead of lemon for a very different flavour.

Keeping

Should be eaten the same day.
