I always fry mine with diced bacon. They retain their "f"s. Firmness and flavour.

Very good point Colette and whenever mick comes on one of my threads I get a twinge in an unusual part of my body.

I'm just pleased to help other dibbers to learn from my Brussel sprout mistake.

Mick, I hope you don't consider me as a stalker because I would never stalk you in the Street (well not 24/7), but when I see you posting I getting a fuzzy feeling (as well as a twinge),

I always leave the house in disguise so I doubt you'd recognise me. I'm a well known figure in Rugby though. Just been to Tesco to get my bag of sprouts.
