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.

Crème brulée
Crème brûlée (burned cream) is quite easy to prepare: it's a simple egg-cream dessert. The only difficulty is in making the delicious crunchy caramel layer on top.
