Tender Brussels sprouts fried in butter and served with caramelised red onions is a wonderful side dish that brings both flavour and colour to your holiday dinner table. Whether you’re preparing turkey, ham or a roast for the holidays, this dish will complement it perfectly.

Ingredients

• 1 red onion
• 110 g butter
• 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
• salt and pepper
• 450 g Brussels sprouts

Instructions

1. Divide the onions into wedges and fry in half of the butter on medium heat for 5–10 minuter.
2. The onions should turn golden, but not burned. Add the vinegar and salt and pepper to taste.
3. Lower the heat some and continue to sauté the onion while stirring. Place on a plate.
4. Rinse and trim the Brussel sprouts and cut them in half. If they are small, you can fry them whole.
5. Fry the Brussel sprouts in the same frying pan with more butter until they have turned a nice colour and a little soft. Use a knife or a pin to check. They’re best served “al dente”.
6. Salt and pepper. Add the onions and stir.
