Ingredients

Instructions

Clean, wash, halve the Brussels sprouts and simmer in salted boiling water for about 10 minutes. Drain and drain. Chop the walnuts smaller if you like.
Heat the oil in a coated pan. Fry the bacon in it, turning, for 3-4 minutes until crispy. Streaky bacon in strips can also be used. Add Brussels sprouts and walnuts and fry for 2-3 minutes. Season with salt, pepper and a little sugar and serve.
Depending on your taste, add a little nutmeg.
As a main course for 2 people, otherwise pan-fried pork goes very well with it.
A little tip: The Brussels sprouts can also be cooked very well in the microwave. Pour wet into a glass bowl with a lid and season with salt. At full power, depending on the device, 5-7 minutes in this case. For whole heads 10-12 minutes.
